520 _aPresents the findings of research into changes of use from working farmsteads to permanent residential complexes in Lancashire. The research team from Liverpool John Moores University assessed local planning policies on rural building conversions and studied planning applications for farmstead conversions between 1997 and 2002. In addition, a questionnaire survey was sent to local authorities to discover the socio-economic profile of the residents occupying farmstead-hamlets and the farmstead-hamlets were measured against a range of sustainability indicators. The research revealed a high level of unsustainable planning approvals for farmstead-hamlets in Lancashire and concluded that a good practice guide on the location of farmstead-hamlets may address this problem.
