5.24 The agent’s letter dated 19 July 1991 refers to the 1989 permission as being for ‘the conversion of the old coach-house, stables and hayloft to three holiday cottages’. It adds, with reference to ‘the holiday cottages already converted’, that these ‘have been in operation for two years’ and that the applicants now wish ‘to convert the five other close-by, redundant, traditional buildings’.
5.25 The following is an extract from a letter dated 27 August 1996, written by Mr Peter Mills of Kinson Limited, Letheringham Lodge, and which accompanied an application for the renewal of an earlier permission for the conversion of redundant agricultural buildings to 5 no. holiday cottages (reference C/96/1073)):
I confirm that we are the new owners of Letheringham Lodge including the subject land containing the holiday cottages and redundant barns, having purchased these from your previous applicants, Mr and Mrs Clough, earlier this year.
5.26 The following are extracts from a letter dated 12 October 1998, written by Mr Peter Mills of Kinson Limited, Letheringham Lodge, and which accompanied an application for the change of use of existing holiday cottages, known as nos. 5 and 6 Letheringham Lodge Cottages, to ‘permanent residential use’ (reference C/98/1396):
The Cloughs continued to trade from the (farm) shop for a few months after they sold the property to my company but vacated it on 28 May 1996. It is currently used for storage.
Approval for a further five holiday cottages was given (in) 1992; this was renewed (in) 1996. No work has begun on the works approved by this consent.
The previous owners Mr and Mrs M.R. Clough obtained the original consent for the cottages (nos. 5 and 6) (from) redundant agricultural buildings. Once conversion was complete, the Cloughs let the cottages through agents for 5-6 years until they sold them, with the adjacent land and barns owned by them, to my company on 7 February 1996.
My wife and I purchased the Lodge.
The Cottages were in a neglected state at the time of sale.
We decided to run the business for a while, .... and did so for two years.
By late 1997 .... it became clear that the cottages were not viable for holiday lets. We therefore ceased to trade at the end of that year.
Letheringham Lodge was a 300 acre working farm from before 1734 until some 20 years ago.
There is a vacant pair of dilapidated cottages by the Lodge, (known as) Lodge Farm Cottages.
We no longer wish to develop the additional (five buildings) as holiday cottages.
We are currently restoring the redundant agricultural buildings with the aim of letting some out as workshops or for similar use, subject to all necessary consents.
We would be prepared to surrender the two existing residential uses at Lodge Farm Cottages.
5.27 The following are extracts from a letter dated 24 June 1999, written by Mr Peter Mills of Kinson Limited, Lodge Farm, Letheringham, and which accompanied three applications submitted concurrently for the change of use of existing buildings, being no. 2 Lodge Farm (reference C/99/0850), nos. 3 and 4 Lodge Farm (C/99/0851), and nos. 5 and 6 Lodge Farm (C/99/0852):
For the change of use of (no. 2 Lodge Farm) to B1 business use from farm shop and kitchen.
For the change of use to ancillary accommodation for Letheringham Lodge of these two semi-detached cottages (nos. 3 and 4 Lodge Farm) in order that their permanent residential use may be transferred to nos. 5 and 6 Lodge Farm.
Nos. 3 and 4 are currently in a dilapidated cottage.
Nos. 3 and 4 are owned by this company, whilst Letheringham Lodge is privately owned by my wife and me. We own Kinson Limited outright, making eventual ownership the same.
For the change of use (of nos. 5 and 6 Lodge Farm) to the extent that it is required to dwelling houses from holiday cottages. This permanent residential use being transferred from nos. 3 and 4 Lodge Farm.
These properties (nos. 5 and 6) were formerly known as Letheringham Lodge Cottages.
The cottages were participants in the EETB Inspection Scheme (between) 1990 and 1998 under both past and current ownership.
The cottages were let through (agents) for seven years, (between) 1990 and 1997.
5.28 The following are extracts from the ‘Land Use Schedule’ for Lodge Farm dated 24 June 1999, which accompanied three applications submitted concurrently by Mr Peter Mills of Kinson Limited, Lodge Farm, Letheringham, for the change of use of existing buildings, being no. 2 Lodge Farm (reference C/99/0850), nos. 3 and 4 Lodge Farm (C/99/0851), and nos. 5 and 6 Lodge Farm (C/99/0852):
Part I
Description of the Letheringham Lodge Estate, including Lodge Farm
Previously part of the Duke of Hamilton’s Estate, Letheringham Lodge was sold in 1922 as a 300 acre working farm.
It continued to be worked until the 1980’s, after which the majority of the farmland and some buildings were sold.
Long Barn .... was formerly called Tithe Barn. It was sold in 1994 by the previous owners with consent for conversion to residential use, and has since been converted.
Letheringham Lodge .... is the principal moated property. Originally a hunting lodge, the present house was built mainly in the fifteenth and seventeenth century. It is believed to have been a dower house after it ceased to be a hunting lodge around 1610 and before it became a farm later that century. It is owned privately by Mr and Mrs Mills who live there.
Lodge Farm (is) a collection of redundant and converted agricultural buildings, all part of the former farm originally established at Letheringham Lodge some time during the seventeenth century or earlier, with surrounding meadows of approximately 15 acres, all other farm land having been sold by the previous owners between 1982 and 1995.
Part II
Existing use of buildings within Lodge Farm
The buildings forming Lodge Farm are numbered (on Plan 2, dated May 1999) and these are individually described with their current use.
No. 1 Lodge Farm (is) a cartlodge(/granary) .... (with) consent for conversion of first floor (level) to holiday cottage.
No. 2 Lodge Farm (is) a pair of stables .... with consent for farm shop and kitchen .... (though) currently used as an office and store.
No. 3 Lodge Farm (is) a dilapidated semi-detached cottage, converted probably around 1930 from a dairy, .... (and is) currently unoccupied.
No. 4 Lodge Farm (is) the other semi-detached part of no. 3, again a dilapidated cottage (and) currently unoccupied.
No. 5 Lodge Farm .... has consent as a holiday cottage, .... (and has) some fifteenth century elements extensively rebuilt as part of its conversion for holiday cottage use in 1989/90. Currently let on an assured tenancy.
No. 6 Lodge Farm .... (has) consent as two (holiday cottages), although these were interconnecting and latterly used as one cottage. Currently let on an assured tenancy.
No. 7 Lodge Farm (was) restored during 1998 (and) has consent for conversion to a holiday cottage. It is currently used for (domestic) storage.
No. 8 Lodge Farm (is) a part open-sided barn, with an attached cart shed. It is currently unused except (as a store).
No. 9 Lodge Farm (is) a cart shed with a lean-to, .... (and) probably was originally thatched. Has consent for conversion to a holiday cottage. It is currently in a dilapidated order and is unused except (as a store).
No. 10 Lodge Farm (is) an open-sided barn used currently for hay (storage).
No. 11 Lodge Farm (is) a part open-sided barn with attached stable. The (stable) has consent for conversion to a holiday cottage. It is currently unused except (as a) store.
No. 12 Lodge Farm (is) a pair of bull pens with consent for conversion to a holiday cottage. It is currently in a dilapidated order and is unused except (as a) store.
Part III
Proposed use of buildings within Lodge Farm
The long term aim of Kinson is to put all the farm buildings back into good repair and use on a commercial basis.
The earlier intended existing use, as holiday cottages, has not proven viable in the restored cottages (nos. 5 and 6 Lodge Farm) so that conversion of other buildings to this use has ceased.
Kinson wish to let (nos. 5 and 6 Lodge Farm) long term as dwellings.
In addition Kinson will surrender its five other holiday cottage consents and confirm its intention of proceeding with a programme of restoration and conversion of the other buildings at Lodge Farm.
Used by Kinson for agricultural, horticultural and construction activities within the estate and beyond.
5.29 The following are extracts from the ‘Schedule setting out a description of the works’ dated 4 October 2010, which accompanied an application for the retention of the insertion of windows at Letheringham Lodge (reference C/10/1353):
To retain windows which were inserted into the building during its extensive repair and restoration commenced some twelve years ago.
Replacement windows have been installed at Letheringham Lodge between 1996 and 2004.
