Expected by 5 Mar 2026

Planning committee

Deferred by Ribble Valley Planning and Development on 27 Aug 2026.

Deferred

  • Officers advised approval because the site was considered sustainable and impacts could be mitigated through conditions and a legal agreement.
  • The town council and more than 120 representations raised concerns including traffic, access, countryside impact, wildlife and flooding.
  • The committee deferred the application so an alternative access directly from Henthorn Road for the northern parcel could be considered.
Read how the committee decided The proposal, site history, officers’ assessment, objections, speakers and committee’s decision to defer are covered.

Also on the record
1 listed building within 150 m of the postcode pin; Priority habitat about 46 m away: Deciduous woodland; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 3, but it predates the buildings here and the current map does not class it as farmland.
Not affected
Outside flood zones 2 and 3 · Not green belt · No scheduled monument at the site

Checked on 24 September 2026. The pin for this application is the centre of its postcode rather than the building, so distances to nearby designations are measured from the postcode and can be out by the width of the postcode area. Historic England, the Environment Agency, Natural England and council datasets, Open Government Licence. A boundary can run through a site and the council holds the definitive record: confirm with the council before relying on this.
