Green Belt Development Surrey

Project

PBDS secured planning consent for the construction of 8 paddle tennis courts in the Green Belt near Addelstone, Surrey.

Our client, a golf club, seeking to develop an ancillary to their existing business. A Change of Use application was submitted to redevelop existing driving range area into a Padel tennis site.

Challenges

  • Location outside of a settlement boundary;
  • Development within the Green Belt,
  • Increased noise concerns on-site, and
  • Archaeological and ecological constraints.
  • Increased vehicular movement.

Our Approach

Our team developed an integrated planning and design strategy that was informed by the existing context. The principles included:

  • Maximisation of development;
  • Increased openness across the site;
  • Landscaping and ecological enhancements;
  • Context-led design.

Results

Our robust approach to planning and design led to a successful planning application and made way for the construction phase.

PBDS navigated the planning process seamlessly, securing approval for our new padel tennis courts with expert precision.
