Throwback Thursday – RNLI Portishead

Thursday, April 17th, 2025

Portishead RNLI Lifeboat Station

On 5th April 2013, we were granted planning permission for the demolition of the old Masonic Lodge and the construction of a new Lifeboat Station, launch ramp, landscaping, and associated works on behalf of the RNLI. The site, located in the Barbican area of Portishead, sits right beside the Bristol Channel estuary and the historic Portishead Pier.

This milestone followed extensive feasibility studies and pre-application work dating back to 2011. The project went out to tender in October 2013, and by April 2015—exactly ten years ago this week—construction was successfully completed.

It was an incredibly rewarding, though intense and time-consuming project. Its success was only possible thanks to the dedication of a fantastic team of consultants, specialists, and a highly capable contractor. A true team effort, and another happy client. From vision to reality.

Somerset – New Housing Development

Tuesday, April 15th, 2025

Excited to see this project officially break ground! Planning approval was secured in 2023 for the demolition of an existing pub and outbuildings, making way for 7 new homes complete with associated access and parking.

We’re proud to be retained as Principal Designer for this timber frame development, which kicked off last week with demolition and site preparation now underway.

Another happy client—turning visions into reality.

Planning Approval for Detached Bungalow

Thursday, April 3rd, 2025

Planning Approval for Detached Bungalow

Another happy client, another planning approval. This time creating a new 2 bed detached bungalow in Lytchett Matravers. This has been a lengthy planning application process, some 9 months from time of registration, and following a refusal for a similar scheme back in 2022. We carefully considered all reasons for refusal, and made amendments to the scheme, and addressed the BNG and Nitrates policies. A lot of effort for a small bungalow, but we got there through our careful and considered approach, negotiation skills and management.  

Maybe we can help you with your site, so why not give Simon at Morgan Design Studio a call, or drop him an email. We can offer an honest, personal and friendly approach to your project, large or small, from feasibility through all stages of planning & design, and assist through the construction phase, bringing in other consultants, to compliment the design team and make your projects happen.

Another happy client. From dreams to reality.

Planning Approval for 2 new detached houses

Planning Approval for 2 new detached houses

Another happy client, another planning approval. This time creating 2 new 4 bed, 1400sqft detached houses in North Dorset. This has been a lengthy planning application process, some 18 months from time of registration. We have needed detailed lighting strategy reports, detailed slow worm and bat surveys, and negotiations over the Biodiversity Net gain. All having to be carefully designed around the ecological requirements of the site and detailed approval from Natural England. But, we got there through our careful and considered approach, negotiation skills and management.

Throwback Thursday

Throwback Thursday

10 years ago, we obtained planning permission for the demolition of a pair of bungalows, in Lytchett Matravers, and redevelopment with 5 new 3 bedroom cottages. One being an unusual round thatched building that formed this corner plot. The concept, feasibility, design, planning and building regulation process took the best part of 18 months, but our carefully considered design, professional yet friendly approach, and help from our tree, ecology and planning colleagues, meant we were able to present our client with an approval for this scheme and get them on site as swiftly as possible. The building works were completed around 12 months later. Another happy developer and more family homes provided. From dreams to reality.

Throwback Thursday

9 years ago, we received planning permission for the demolition of a detached run down bungalow, in Upton, and the redevelopment with 3 new detached 3 bedroom cottages. One being a thatched finish. The concept, feasibility, design, planning and building regulation process took the best part of 12 months, but our carefully considered design, professional yet friendly approach, and help from our tree, ecology and planning colleagues, meant we were able to present our client with an approval for this scheme and get them on site as swiftly as possible.
