Anyone converted a wooden stable/garage?

if you do paint it pink with a shark on the roof and leave it long enough, it will also fall under the grade listing in the end and will have to remain that way forever onwards, so be aware!

Why all this concern over planning?
It has garage doors, it's probably been used as a garage, changing the doors isn't going to upset anyone.

Yes, I think '602 lobbed the planning grenade into this discussion

Getting some structural advice is clearly important though - particularly if I end up hanging a couple of barn doors across the full width of the vehicular entrance.

Still struggling somewhat to find anyone local(ish) - I found a couple of companies down south that would probably fit the bill but no equestrian builders yet who could come and chew through the options.

I'll keep looking!
