    Hi folks
    Just a bit of advise if ya can on planning.
    A mate of mine owns his own house and farm. Recently He
    bought a new farm in a different county. He wants to build a
    house on this new farm. He has a 21 year old son.
    Which name should He put on the application. His own or his son's?
    I'm thinking his son's as He already has a house himself? He can only live in one
    house at a time himself.
    Another important thing to note here is that He intends demolishing an old cottage to build this house. This should help the cause if they let him knock it!

    Cheers

    Normally once there is a reasonable farm holding and a family member who intends living on the farm there isn't usually a problem. It might not be any harm to check if there are any Section 47s attached to the new farm holding as a result of the sale of sites in the past. This could pose a problem, if there were.

    The county development plan for the subject farm will be the best source of guidance.

    Don't demolise the cottage before you have planning for the new house.

    Thanks Archtech
    Yeah so not so critical what name is on the application. But probably best put the Son's on it to make it more straight forward. Must check out the section 47s. How does one do this?

    Makes no differnece who's name is on the application as the actual land owner will have to give written consent either way, and most councils require copy of folio showing extent of holdings with application.

    Go into council planning office and view map of holding and any/last application on it will note if S.47 on lands. I'm sure solicitrot in sales would/should have flagged this is existing.

    Will check that out. s 47 is this where the land is frozen? so no one can build.
    cheers
