The original farmhouse and attached barn, being the westerly building within the courtyard, has planning consent under South Lakeland District Council reference 5/91/2355/LH/SCL. A material start has been made on the planning permission, confirmed in a letter from South Lakeland District Council dated 30 October 1997. A copy of which is available from the selling agents offices. The consent is to extend the farmhouse into part of the attached barn, for the creation of a second dwelling within the remainder of the barn.
