Wroxham Home Farms, a sixth-generation family farming business, has submitted a proposal to Broadland Council to tear down a barn at Broad House Barn in Wroxham.

The barn - which is currently occupied by Nick Hindle Stonemasons - has been described "in a state of decay with growth and degradation evident" with damage to its roof and wall materials.

And in its place, the farming firm wants to build a larger two-storey barn which will provide two more business units and "help with the viability of the overall development".

A planning statement said: "The intention is to create a barn which is economically viable as a new-build but which retains sympathetic characteristics towards its rural context."

The proposal also includes a new parking area with 13 new car parking spaces and six cycle spaces which can be shared between the new barn and another existing commercial barn on the site.
