At Wollens, we understand the unique challenges and opportunities facing the rural and agricultural sector. Our Planning & Highways team provides expert legal support to farmers, landowners, and rural businesses across Devon, helping them make the most of their land through smart planning and diversification strategies.

Building on our experience with agricultural planning determinations, we assist with a wide range of rural development matters—from new agricultural buildings and worker dwellings to tourism ventures, equestrian facilities, renewable energy projects, and other forms of land diversification.

We offer clear, practical advice on planning permissions, permitted development rights, Class Q conversions, and lawful development certificates, as well as strategic input on planning appeals and enforcement actions.

Our team also supports clients with Section 106 agreements, access and highways advice, and land promotion or option agreements, ensuring rural projects are both viable and compliant.

Whether you’re expanding a farming enterprise or repurposing land for new income streams, Wollens brings deep regional knowledge and legal expertise to help you unlock your land’s full potential.

Contact us today to find out how we can support your next rural planning or diversification project.
