This application sought permission to demolish an existing outbuilding at Squeen Farm, Ballacrye Road, Ballaugh, and replace it with a new agricultural outbuilding of similar size. The application was decided under delegated powers and was approved on 10 May 2005. The officer's assessment found that, because the new building would replace an existing one and be of comparable scale within the farm holding, the overall impact would be relatively minor. No refusal reasons were raised and the proposal was considered unobjectionable in planning terms.

The application was approved by delegated decision. The replacement building was considered acceptable because it is of a similar size to the existing structure, sits within an established farm holding, and its impact was judged to be relatively minor. The formal decision record lists 3 conditions.
