Check your local planning authority's development plan for their guidelines on replacement dwellings.
Here in Louth what you are talking about would not work, well not for replacement, you would have to apply as if it were any empty site and comply with whatever requirements.
When my parents got planning in the 80's it was because there were 4 walls of a stone dwelling left, three complete walls and one with two courses in place. Today you would need all walls and most of the roof to be in place at a minimum.
