A planning application for Calverley Clough Farm on New Lane would see the stone building and a barn on the farm converted into a two houses, a three bed property and a four bed property.

The plans, submitted by Mr Brook, also include the creation of a garage to serve the farmhouse and the demolition of a number of modern agricultural buildings on the site.

The plans also include a new access road to replace what the application describes as a “substandard” access road to the farm.

It adds: “The removal of farming activity from the site will also reduce the number of vehicle movements and remove movements from large farm machinery.”

A decision on the planning application is expected next month.
