Barn conversions

[One More Solo]

Has anyone done one of these? Currently at a very early stage but an opportunity has presented itself to acquire a large plot of land with an existing stone barn.

It would need a substantial amount of work doing. I think we would go down the formal planning permission route rather than the conversion option. I'm interested in your stories/experiences.

Do you have an option in which route you can go down? A Barn is an agricultural building. If you want to make it a livable space then the only option is a 'conversion'.

Sorry, I was talking about the option you have to apply for a class Q conversion rather than going down the planning permission route.
