Threats From Development

On the 16^th of August 2023, I received a letter from the North Yorkshire Council informing me they have received an application for full planning permission for a residential development of 28 dwellings and associated infrastructure on the land that my house looks onto. The letter from the planning officer told me I had until the 6^th of September for the council to consider any comments I may wish to make in writing to them.   

In this design, I will take a retrospective look at the lessons learnt from this experience and what can be done to be better prepared when such applications for full planning permission arise in the future.

*This is a current design that I am working on and not yet got to the publish stage*

Kitchen Garden Revolutions

This is my first land-based design using the forage framework. Here I take an element from the Kitchen Garden Design which I feel does not provide the returns I should be getting from the space it consumes in the front garden.
