Maesgwynne Farm, Llanon
New milking parlour with handling system.
Agri Design was involved in the design of this new parlour gaining planning permission in Oct 2012.
The original ideas of the client were drawn up with an alternative option suggested by Agri Design. The alternate design was a layout to suit the cow flow to and from the existing sheds, reducing external cattle tracks and dirty aprons. This alternate option was selected by the client as a better site layout, and work continued to refine the design into a detailed planning application. It was then worked up to a set of detailed drawings for the client to pass to builders to price,
The detailed drawings showed
