Farm Development

A planning application has been submitted to convert a steel frame shed in to a wedding barn at the Hayloft in Great Sankey (image below).  We obtained the original planning permission for the conversion of the existing barns to a cafe/restaurant and events room.  Having proved an extremely popular location our clients have re-appointed us to seek consent for a contemporary purpose made wedding venue
