Planning committee
Decided by Hinckley and Bosworth Planning Committee on 25 Aug 2026. The council has not yet issued its decision notice.
Approved
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because heritage harm would not significantly and demonstrably outweigh the housing and self-build benefits.
- Five addresses objected, raising concerns about scale, heritage, amenity, ecology, highways, flooding and construction disruption.
- Members approved the application with amended conditions on construction hours, ecology and permitted development rights for the garage.
