Plans to turn empty Shropshire farm buildings into eight family homes given the green light
Shropshire Council has given the green light to plans to turn several vacant agricultural buildings into eight family homes.
Five empty agricultural buildings at Catstree House Farm are set to be turned into eight family homes after the planning application was approved by Shropshire Council.
The planning application to transform the historic buildings near Bridgnorth was submitted in early May.
The buildings, while not formally designated as a heritage asset, are described as "a good example of 19th-century agricultural buildings", with handmade red brick facades, circular and arched windows and 'pop holes' arranged in decorative patterns.
The application's Design and Access statement described the barns as "currently redundant as far as agricultural activity is concerned" and are "in good repair, but are currently standing empty".
