Planning permission is being sought retrospectively for private ambulance parking and a control room at Hemingstone Fruit Farm.

The site currently has 10 spaces for ambulances and five for cars, with a single-story office acting as a control room.

The ambulances are used for patient transport and to service pre-arranged events and large gatherings.

There have been multiple planning applications for business units at Hemingstone Fruit Farm, but most have been unsuccessful.

Part of the former fruit farm has been used for private ambulances since September 2023.

The application is now with Mid Suffolk District Council and a public consultation is underway.
