Planning committee
Decided by Elmbridge Planning Committee on 13 Oct 2026. The council has not yet issued its decision notice.
Refused
Against officer advice: officers had recommended approval.
- Officers advised granting permission because housing, affordable homes, open space and infrastructure benefits outweighed localised landscape harm.
- The committee refused permission because it considered the site strongly contributed to the historic town’s Green Belt setting and the benefits did not outweigh the harms.
