Officer’s Report
THE PLANNING APPLICATION IS BEFORE THE PLANNING COMMITTEE AT THE REQUEST OF THE PRINCIPAL PLANNER AS THE DEVELOPMENT PROPOSES A LARGE EQUESTRIAN BUILDING ON A SITE THAT IS NOT DESIGNATED FOR DEVELOPMENT
1.0 THE SITE 1.1 The site comprises part of the equestrian facility curtilage of Moaney Moar Farm, Ballabooie Road, Cronk Y Voddy, Kirk Michael. It involves the site of an existing outdoor, fenced manege with a sand surface, which is set to the rear of an array of stable and agricultural buildings with adjoining farm dwelling and to the east of a smaller manege and pony paddock with jumps.
1.2 The farm is an active commercial operation with livery services. The site is located approximately 36 metres from Ballabooie Road (side road) and about 105 meters from Cronk Y Voddy Road (A3 main road). The manege lies at a level approximately 2 metres lower in elevation than the existing stable block. The surroundings are countryside.
2.0 THE PROPOSAL 2.1 The full planning application proposes proposal is the erection of manege with associated stabling facilities and feed and tractor store.
2.2 The Planning Statement accompanying the application advises:
"The proposed barn will have the following dimensions:
o Barn: 56.75 meters in length and 31.5 meters in width (1,787.625m2). o Indoor Riding Arena: 17.8 meters by 53.6 meters. The structure will be built with a steel frame, clad in green corrugated aluminium sheeting, with a corrugated green aluminium roof. The design will feature 56 polycarbonate skylights, strategically positioned based on the steel frame design. The stable windows will be timber, and the two main barn doors will be timber, mounted on rollers to slide open against the barn's cladding. The barn will also include an electrically operated roller door for access to the hay and tractor store. The stabling facilities will be divided into private and commercial areas:
==== PAGE 4 ====
25/90314/B
Page 4 of 10
o Private Stabling: 7 stables (each 3.65m by 3.65m), a tack and rug room (3.65m by 7.4m), a medical bay, wash stall/solarium (3.65m by 4.35m), and a hay and tractor store (12m by 6.6m). o Commercial Stabling: 8 stables (each 3.65m by 3.65m), a wash stall/solarium (3.65m by 4.35m), a feed room (3.65m by 7.4m), 2 tack rooms (each 3.65m by 3.65m), and an additional rug room (3.65m by 3.65m). "
2.3 In an email received on 16 June, 2025, the applicants advised that: ..."the proposed large barn is required to provide year-round facilities for exercising livestock, (primarily horses). The proposed barn would also include both private and commercial stabling. The applicants consider that this would enhance the existing agricultural and equestrian facilities at the farm. In an email received on 14 June, 2025, the applicants advised that: "the applicant's principal focus on equestrian use. Historically, the site has also accommodated a small number of donkeys (typically one or two). While there are currently no donkeys on site, the applicant would prefer not to be restricted to horses only. There is no intention to keep other conventional farm livestock (e.g. cattle, sheep, pigs), though the applicant may explore the possibility of keeping a small number of llamas in future, which would be kept in a similar low- impact manner to equines. If this were to present any issue in planning terms, the applicant would be happy to submit an additional or amended application separately at a later date, following the successful determination of the current application.
The wider landholding is arable and is used predominantly for the production of fodder for the applicant's horses, with any surplus sold to local equestrian outlets."
2.4 The applicant further advise that: "The Hay and Tractor Store is intended solely for the storage of feed, bedding, and equipment associated with horse care, as well as housing a tractor for land management purposes.".
3.0 PLANNING HISTORY 3.1 93/01426/B - Alterations to create farm display unit with parking and refreshments, Moaney Moar Farm, Cronk-y-Voddy, German. Permitted - 01.09.1994.
3.2 92/00502/A - Approval in principle for conversion of farm building into residential accommodation, Moaney Moar Farm, Cronk-y-Voddy, German. Permitted.
3.3 91/01112/B - Construction of agricultural building, Moaney Moar, Cronk-y-Voddy, German. Permitted.
3.4 84/01078/B - Erection of agricultural building, Moaney Moar Farm Complex, Cronk y Voddy, German. Permitted.
3.5 OTHER SIMILAR CASES
3.6 It is worth noting the following details relate to similar cases for equestrian development and their outcomes:
3.7 PA 19/01426/B - New 20m x 60m indoor arena at Sunnycroft, Rhendoo Road, Jurby - approved - 19.05.2020.
Case Officer's comments: This site is in a rural location approx. 2km SE of Jurby East - lowland setting - the building would be located to the SE of the existing farm building complex. The site is more open with less adjoining tree cover than the PA 21/00550/B proposals with views of the site directly from Rhendoo Road. It would be screened from views from the north by the existing dwelling and farm buildings/equestrian facilities on the site. The site and surroundings are relatively flat with distant views of the mountains to the south.

3.8 PA 21/00550/B - New 20m x 60m equestrian arena and associated facilities - stabling and tack areas and service corridors at Ballaquayle Farm, St Marks Road, St Marks, Ballasalla - approved - 12.08.2021.
Case Officer's comments: This site is a lowland site located in the south of the Island to the north of Ballasalla. It is set low in the landscape with existing trees and hedging providing screening of it from views obtained from the A26 to the east.
3.9 22/01386/B - Proposed erection of private equestrian facilities in fields 524030, 524029 and 522779, Ballamona Estate, Quine's Hill, Port Soderick. These facilities include an indoor riding arena with associated stabling, tack, and equipment stores, along with an outdoor manege, hay barn, field shelter, and associated landscaping. This application is intended as an amendment to the previously approved scheme PA 12/01285/B" at Fields 524030, 524029 & 522779, Ballamona Estate, Oak Hill, Port Soderick, Isle of Man, IM4 1AT - Planning Committee case - approved - 09.08.2023.
Case Officer's comments: This development proposed 40m x 20m indoor riding arena with associated stabling, tack, and equipment stores - overall dimensions were 31.0m x 51.78m - this is a 'lowland' site well-related to existing traditional barns and farmhouse and Mill House structures was well- screened from its surroundings, by hedges, trees and woodland and also set well back from the Old Castletown Road.
3.10 24/00683/B - Erection of equestrian building at Field 624110, Ballagilley Farm, Gooseneck Road, Hibernia, Ramsey, IM7 1EP - these facilities comprise: "The proposed structure would be sited to the east and north of the existing complex of farm/equestrian buildings. The proposal involves stripping an area of land measuring approx. 75.0m deep x 40.0m wide via a cut and fill method to provide a level surface on which the equestrian building would be sited. The building would measure 66.0m long x 30.0m wide (1,980m2 in floor area) x 4.5m high to the eaves and 8.69m high to the ridge. It would be constructed using a steel frame with walls of tantalised castle boarding on 125mm x 175mm timber cladding rails under a pitched roof of Profile 6 reinforced fibre cement sheets, colour Juniper Green. Its roof would have 44 No. roof lights in 11 groups of 4 roof lights on each of the roof slopes (88 roof lights in total). The building would be served by 2 No. pairs of timber clad sliding doors, 1 in the west side elevation and 1 in the south end elevation."
Case Officer's comments: Refused under delegated powers for the following reason:
"The size and scale of the proposed equestrian building in this upland location would result in an overly large structure being sited in a visually sensitive, upland landscape setting, which would be visible from a wide area surrounding the site, particularly from the eastern slopes and summit of North Barrule; the A2 main road running past the site to the east; and, from the higher ground to the north, and to the east at Maughold which is located close to the coast, and affords a more distant view of the site and proposed development. This would result in an unacceptable degree of visual harm the character of the site and its surroundings. Overall, the proposal fails to comply with the provisions of General Policy 2 b), c) and g); Environment Policy 1; and, Environment Policy 20 in the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016; and, the Landscape Strategy as outlined in the Isle of Man Landscape Character Assessment (2008), where the site is recognised as being within the A1 - NORTHERN UPLANDS Landscape Character Area."
Approved on appeal 15/1/25. The Inspector, in his Report on the Inquiry to the Minister advised that:
"50. Despite its considerable scale, the proposed building would be unusually discreet in its appearance and effects, and would broadly meet the provisions of GP2 of the IMSP in scale, form and design. However, there would be a very slight degree of permanent planning harm
==== PAGE 6 ====
25/90314/B
Page 6 of 10
to the Northern Uplands landscape, leading to an equally slight degree of conflict with EP1 and also EP20 of the IMSP with respect to the protection of the countryside and the effects of equestrian development.
It is fine balance between slight harm and slight benefit. In this particular case of minimal harm from a private equestrian development with no associated commercial activity I take the view that the slight benefits available are sufficient to justify the planning approval sought in this appeal.
In forming this view, I have given due consideration to the written objections of the Garff Commissioners to the appeal proposal but I give no weight to their concern that the proposed development could be a portent for a commercial equestrian or other enterprise at Ballagilley Farm; for that would require a further planning approval, and commercial activity can be prevented by planning condition."
4.0 PLANNING POLICY Site Specific
4.1 The site is not within an area with specific land use designation in the Isle of Man 1982 Development Plan, meaning it is considered to be part of the countryside.
4.2 The 1982 Development Plan identifies site is being within an Area of High Landscape or Coastal Value and Scenic Significance (AHLV). The flowing extract from the Isle of Man Landscape Character Assessment (2008) indicates that the site lies within Landscape Area D6 - Cronk-Y-Voddy where the key characteristics are:
"Key Characteristics o Rolling to steep undulating land, which slopes gently upwards to the east. o V-shaped river valley with dense deciduous wooded valley bottoms. o Fragmented field pattern fringed by fragmented woodland. o Hill farming, rough pasture, heathland vegetation, pastoral and arable fields. o An evocative sense of abandoned fields on upper slopes. o Dramatic backdrop of the rising Northern Uplands to the east contributes to a strong sense of place. o Semi-open character overall. o Settled character with small nucleated settlements, scattered dwellings, farm houses with outbuildings, using vernacular materials. o Archaeological sites such as keeills, cairns and standing stones. o Relatively strong sense of tranquillity throughout character area. o Presence of Manx Milestones. o Lhergydhoo Sandpit
The 'Overall Character Description' of the area is described as: Rolling to steep land descends from the upland areas down to the coast with a variety of steeply sided wooded river valleys such as the National Glen of Glen Mooar cutting into the undulating plateau. Mature hedgerow trees, a variety of Manx hedges and gorse hedgerows separate areas consisting of fragmented fields of rough grazing and patches of moorland vegetation on the higher inland slopes from the larger ,more rectilinear, pastoral and arable fields that cover the lower slopes closer to the sea where extensive views along the coastline are gained in places. A semi-improved landscape overall but more open in the west.
Settlement pattern is dispersed, consisting of clusters of buildings or scattered isolated farmsteads of traditional Manx style. Wooded valley bottoms, hedgerow trees and tree planting around the various scattered farmsteads and building clusters create a fragmented wooded horizon. The grass banks of the Manx hedges that line the various small lanes, tracks
==== PAGE 7 ====
25/90314/B
Page 7 of 10
and roads in the area enclose views in places while extensive views across the Island and out to sea are gained in the western portion of the Character Area, such as the northern end of Bayr ny Staarvey where the remains of Keeill Pharick are also located. Other ruined Keeills such as Cabbal Pherick Chapel in Glen Mooar, earthworks such as Manannan's Chair and various cairns reveal the age/history of human habitation in this area.
Key Views o Open views, in the west up to the upland peaks of Sartfell and other Upland peaks. o Open views over fields to ever-changing seascape in the west of the area. o Kirk Michael Church north of this character area is a dramatic landmark in views from northern parts of this area.
The Landscape Strategy and Landscape Planning Guidelines are: Landscape Strategy: The overall strategy should be to conserve and enhance the character, quality and distinctiveness of the area, with its patchwork of upland fields fringed by valley bottom woodland and moorland and its enclosed and intimate rural road network, a tranquil and remote character with traditional hamlets, scattered farm buildings and nucleated settlements built in a vernacular style.
Landscape Planning Guidelines o Resist new development that would result in any diminution of the tranquillity of the area, would adversely affect open views, would adversely affect the scattered settlement pattern or does not respect the scale and character of the area. o Restrict any new development that would result in the physical or visual amalgamation of housing alongside the A3 road. o Restrict built development in close proximity to rivers. o Conserve the historic landscape pattern and features of cultural heritage and their setting. o Retain the relatively dispersed settlement pattern of the area. o Protect the rural character of the landscape by locating new buildings in visually inconspicuous locations, and by clustering them around existing buildings. o Conserve vernacular character by appraising local styles, densities and materials and by considering their appropriateness for new buildings and the spaces between these buildings. o Avoid road improvements (e.g. signage or widening) that would adversely affect the rural character of the landscape and conserve their vernacular character (e.g. Manx hedges, stone bridges etc.) as appropriate. o Review quality of urban/rural interface and consider opportunities for introduction of tree/shrub planting to visually soften harsh built edges and to help integrate settlement into surrounding landscape. o Consider opportunities for developing public footpath provision."
Strategy and Guidance 4.3 There is no strategy or guidance relevant to this application. 4.4 The following policies from the 2016 Strategic Plan are considered pertinent in the assessment of this application:
Strategic Policy 1 Optimising the use of land 5 Design and visual impact 10 Sustainable transport

Transport Policy 4 Highway safety 7 Parking provisions
5.0 REPRESENTATIONS 5.1 Michael Parish Commissioners - no comments had been received by the Report drafting stage (15 May, 2025).
5.2 Highway Services - 15 April 2025 After reviewing this Application, Highway Services HDC finds it: o to have no significant negative impact upon highway safety, network o functionality and/or parking as the proposals support an existing equestrian operation which has previously not raised any site access or road safety concerns, nor recorded road injury accidents due to the development activity, on the adjacent highway network and there is adequate parking and turning areas on site for the existing and proposed future operation
6.0 ASSESSMENT 6.1 The key considerations of this application are the principle, and its visual impact on the character of the site and surrounding area.
Principle of the Development 6.2 A site visit and the planning statement provided by the applicant has confirmed that the site forms part of an existing equestrian centre and there are equestrian activities being carried out on the land. The site for the proposed covered manage with associated stabling facilities and feed and tractor store comprises existing operational equestrian land, it being a sand surfaced, fenced manege adjoining existing stables and barns. There would be no 'loss' of agricultural land arising from the development because the site area for the proposed covered manege is already in equestrian use. In this instance there would be no conflict with the provisions of IoMSP Environment Policies 14 and 15, which respectively seek to avoid the permanent loss of important and versatile agricultural land (Classes 1-2); and, outline the agricultural or horticultural need for a new building. Therefore, in terms of the principle of development, it is considered that the proposal complies with the provisions of General Policy 3 and Environment Policy 14, 15 and 19, and is acceptable.
Character of the Area 6.3 The site is within an Area of High Landscape or Costal Value and Scenic Significance (AHLV) as outlined in 1982 the Isle of Man Development Plan. In the IoMSP 2106, Environment Policy 1 indicates (inter alia) that "The countryside and its ecology will be protected for its own sake... Development which would adversely affect the countryside will
==== PAGE 9 ====
25/90314/B
Page 9 of 10
not be permitted unless there is an over-riding national need in land use planning terms which outweighs the requirement to protect these areas and for which there is no reasonable and acceptable alternative." Environment Policy 19 indicates (inter alia) that: "Development of equestrian activities and buildings will only be accepted in the countryside where there will be as a result of such development no loss in local amenity, no loss of high quality agricultural land (Classes 1 and 2)", whereas, Environment Policy 20 indicates that: "There will be a presumption against large scale equestrian developments, which includes new buildings and external arenas, in areas with High Landscape or Coastal Value and Scenic Significance unless there are exceptional circumstances to override such a policy."
6.4 The site is currently used as an outdoor manege and is well related to existing farm/stable/equestrian buildings, and the farm house, and its location on the site of the existing open manege would ensure that it does not interfere with more sensitive or significant parts of the farm. The land level of the site is set approximately 2.0m lower than its surroundings and is screened by a mature tree/hedge screen on the nearby southern suite boundary, and a sod bank containing gorse shrubs to the east. To the west of the site lies a smaller manege, and exercise area, and pony paddock with jumps. It is considered that the new equestrian facility containing the manege, stables and tractor store, would to a large degree, be screened by existing associated structures. Furthermore, its approx. 2.0m lower land surface relative to its surroundings would result in the proposed equestrian facility having a low level visual impact on the rural character of the site and the surrounding area.
6.5 The new equestrian facility's design, which incorporates green cladding and a corrugated roof, should blend in well with the rural landscape and would accord with the advice in the Landscape Character Assessment to protect the rural character of the landscape by locating new buildings in visually inconspicuous locations, and by clustering them around existing buildings. Additionally, the elevations and choice of materials should ensure that the structure does not result in a dominant feature which would be visually harmful to the surrounding environment or the overall visual amenity of the area.
6.6 The farm and equestrian centre is already established as a commercial livery, and the development should serve to enhance and expand existing operations, which currently are weather dependent thereby benefiting the farm, and the local community, whilst offering rural employment without negatively affecting the environment. It is noted that, save for the associated farmhouse, there are no nearby residential properties. Therefore, it is considered that there the visual impact on the character of the area would be acceptable. As such, the proposals accord with the provisions of General Policy 2, Environment Policies 1, 2, 19, 20, and 21 in the Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016.
Other matters 6.7 The proposed development would not give rise to any other matters, including access and parking, highway safety, or have any adverse impacts on biodiversity. In the event of an approval being granted, conditions should be applied covering materials; protected species measures; foul and surface drainage water details; external lighting details; landscape scheme; restrict use to equestrian/agricultural activities linked with Moaney Moor Farm; removal of building if no longer required.
7.0 CONCLUSION 7.1 The proposal is considered to comply with General Policy 2, General Policy 3, Environment Policy 1, Environment Policy 2 and Environment Policy 15 the Strategic Plan. Therefore, it is recommended for an approval.
8.0 RIGHT TO APPEAL AND RIGHT TO GIVE EVIDENCE 8.1 The Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 sets out the process for determining planning applications (including appeals). It sets out a Right to Appeal
==== PAGE 10 ====
