Peacock Cottage in Charlton was originally an agricultural building, forming part of the Charlton Barns property.

Owners Tim and June Slater state that the building was converted and ‘occupied as a principal residence’ since 2018.

Submitted plans for the property shows that the building contains two bedrooms, a shower, kitchen and living room.

They have now had an application for a lawful development certificate for an existing use granted by Telford & Wrekin Council.
