Unit 11 is a single storey traditional redbrick and flint barn that boasts high eaves, with an open bay on the south facing side, and a clay pantile roof. Unit 13 A, is a single-storey former dairy building, that is a more modern addition with a corrugated tin and fibre cement roof.

Full planning details can be found on the North Norfolk District Council website, under reference number: PF/15/1524.

Important Planning Notes: An application to make a non material amendment to remove the door on the western boundary of Unit 13 is in progress. The sunroom on Unit 11 included in the planning permission is not to be constructed. The buyer will be responsible for making any relevant planning amendments to remove this feature.
