Planning committee

Decided by North West Leicestershire Planning Committee on 10 Feb 2026. Earlier deferred on 21 Jan 2026.

Refused

  • Officers advised approval because the benefits of one self-build dwelling outweighed the policy and limited landscape harms.
  • Residents, the parish council and the ward member raised concerns about character, amenities, flooding, access and policy compliance.
  • The committee rejected approval and refused the application because it conflicted with Policies S2 and S3 and would affect the area visually.
