Berrys secures planning consent for self-storage centre

Planning consultants at Berrys have successfully secured retrospective planning permission for the change of use of agricultural land to a commercial self-storage centre on the edge of Northampton. 
“Although the site is close to the large town of Northampton, the site itself is in a rural location and characterised by agricultural grazing land,” explained Ian Taylor, senior planning consultant at the Kettering office of Berrys
“The storage centre was already in place but the planning application still presented many challenges, including demonstrating that the location was suitable for commercial use.”
“There were also Council Officer concerns regarding its impact on local highways and the visual impact of the development but Berrys managed to satisfy officers that the development was acceptable and planning permission was duly granted. 
“This means that our client can continue to operate a highly successful business from the site which has experienced high demand since it opened,” Ian added.
