Search the Public Notice PortalPlans have been unveiled to demolish a barn in Acton Beauchamp and replace it with a house.
Planning permission is currently being sought for the demolition of an existing agricultural barn at Acton Beauchamp and the subsequent construction of a single-storey dwelling in its place.
The barn, benefiting from prior approval for residential conversion under Class Q, is listed under reference P241648/PA4, with an approved access track under P250721/F.
The application states these prior approvals are significant considerations for the current proposal.
The site is situated within the open countryside to the south of Acton Beauchamp, approximately five miles south-west of Bromyard and around 10 miles north of Ledbury.
The area is predominantly characterised by pasture, hedgerows, tree belts, and a scattered arrangement of farmsteads and rural homes, traditionally constructed out of materials such as brick, stone, and timber.
The proposed layout of the new dwelling indicates a single-storey building arranged in a long, linear form, sitting at a lower elevation within the landscape than New Tynnings Cottage.
The dwelling has been designed to blend into its rural setting, replicating the low profile of traditional agricultural buildings to minimise visual impact.
A suite of documents supports the application, including existing and proposed drawings, a Design and Access Statement, a Sustainable Drainage Statement, an updated Preliminary Ecological Appraisal, and a Landscape and Ecology Management Plan.
Notably, the application stresses that the proposed materials are selected to resonate with the agricultural aesthetic prevalent in Acton Beauchamp.
The scheme includes retaining a neighbouring parcel of land for grazing.

Vehicle access to the proposed dwelling would proceed from Frome Manor Road via the approved access route.
It is stated the site will benefit from its position lower in the landscape, subservient to New Tynnings Cottage.
This arrangement is intended to preclude intrusion on the skyline and to minimise the dwelling's visual footprint in long-range views.
