After 2 refused applications and 2 architects we hit the nail on the head and our application has been passed. We moved into 127 in February of 2006 after a long time homeless and living with my parents. Although I love them dearly and can't thank them enough for putting us up it's not the same as having your own space and place to call your own.
Having been there 3 months we started the ball rolling using a local architect called Archie Knight to draw up our plans. The first application that was refused can be found here: http://www.southkesteven.gov.uk/Planning/ApplicationInformation.aspx?ID=S06/0662
Refused due to issues involving the proximity to a Grade 2 listed building to our right we moved on with a second application: http://www.southkesteven.gov.uk/Planning/ApplicationInformation.aspx?ID=S06/1445
After a second refusal we decided to take a break and have a think. We were told of a second architect called Bob Barwell and moved on with a 3rd application: http://www.southkesteven.gov.uk/Planning/ApplicationInformation.aspx?ID=S07/0541
Finally getting planning permission I decided to start this Blog to post the progress of our contruction from the news of it passing all the way to completion. I will photo the progress as we go and get some pictures up here before we even stick a shovel in the ground so we can get a good before and after.
For now, its been passed and that is a good start for me! I will go into detail on the plans but at the moment I am chilling out and thinking about the builders I could use.
My current list of builders I could use:
- Baxter & King
- Burmor
- Robinsons
- Parmenter
- Steve Gilbert
The list is growing and I hope that more will write to me now that the application has passed.
