Hi
I have four acres and want to erect a small (12x12) field shelter for my sheep. It would be fully mobile as I strip graze the field so it needs to be moved once every few months to fit in with this. There would be no services, it wouldn't have a floor and would be towable by skids. Does anyone know if this requires planning? The last I heard mobile did not? I'm in Scotland :)
Thanks
:)

Your right, no planning required. l have mobile ones too, work great :thumbsup: :sheep:

You generally only need 'prior notification' for agricultural buildings, not planning. However a structure that doesn't stay in the same place for more than 28 days is exempt anyway. And I don't think the planners are particularly adept at keeping track of the days.

They are not considered an ' agricultural ' building. We just move them before they get too poached ,works great no mucking out of buildings :thumbsup: Our shetland has one too :horse:
