Thank you. Apologies for being rude about planning officers, I know there are some real, human ones out there! Application done, brain well and truly done in!

TBH if you're going to spend £15-25k on a school then for an extra £300 just get the planning, I am nothing to do with building/ planning but I did the drawings and filled in the forms for our planning application - the cost was minimal and worth it in the long run as there is no debate.
The only complicated thing I had to do was send them a photo of post and rail fencing as they weren't clear what it would look like !!!!!
Is the land the manege is going on absolutely flat? Because if it is not (and not many patches of land are, even if they look it) then some cut and fill to level the land will be needed and the council will want full details of the existing levels, and the changed levels, as well as the outline and size of the proposed plot.absolutely tiramisu! I'm not paying anyone to do it for me, they will have to be satisfied with my scale rule and graph paper!
does this mean farmers need pp to drain a field?I asked my OH (planning consultant) he says.
The main reason pp is needed for a manege is because the required drainage work is considered engineering work and this requires pp.
pp may not be required if the manege is sited in the curtilage of a dwelling house ie the garden, but unless the curtilage is well defined this can cause more problems. A menage in a paddock will always require pp.
