RUD12 - DEVELOPMENT ON FRAGMENTED AGRICULTURAL LAND

The Council will not permit development that would result in the fragmentation of agricultural or horticultural holdings so as to seriously undermine the economic viability of the remaining holdings.

In considering proposals for new agricultural buildings on parcels of land which were formerly part of a larger agricultural holding, the Council will require clear cut evidence to demonstrate that they are reasonably necessary for the purposes of agriculture within the unit and are otherwise acceptable in terms of Policy RUD13 and RUD14.
