Planning Application for Two Agricultural Buildings at Cronk Aalin Farm, Sulby

February 2020

Supporting Information:

Building 1 – Feed Store (90' x 45')

2000171

This building is proposed to store the winter feed for the farms dairy herd. It has been designed to meet the requirements of DEFA for the ensiling of winter feed. There are 3m concrete panels to both sides and one gable which will provide a suitable pit. Having a roof over the pit is essential to ensure rainwater is kept separate from the feed. The building is located over the existing yard on which bales are currently stored. The proposal will remove the need to store feed in bales and massively reduce plastic waste. The building will match existing buildings in colour and design.

Building 2 – Youngstock Building (75' x 30' + cantilever)

This building will provide winter housing for the Dairy herd young stock. It is located behind building 1 and existing housing. The building's crown ridge will be ventilated to meet DEFA requirements for animal housing. The building will match existing buildings in colour and design.
