Planning committee

Deferred by Test Valley Southern Area Planning Committee on 11 Aug 2026.

Deferred

  • Officers advised permission because the proposal would improve bin provision without unacceptable visual, amenity, ecological or highway harm.
  • Residents raised concerns about smell, overlooking, hedgerow loss, access, safety, appearance, antisocial behaviour and fire risk.
  • The committee voted to defer the application so alternative locations, existing permission, local consultation and landscaping could be explored.

Site constraints 5

Nutrient neutrality catchment: Solent: Includes Chichester and Langstone Harbours SPA/Ramsar, Solent and Southampton Water SPA/Ramsar, Solent Maritime SAC, Portsmouth Harbour SPA/Ramsar
New homes and overnight accommodation must show nutrient neutrality before approval.
Natural England advice: extra wastewater in these catchments harms protected habitats, so schemes must offset their nutrient load, usually through credits.
Habitat network: Other Priority Habitats - NEZ
Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.
Also on the record
Inside the North Baddesley built-up area; Priority habitat 20 m away: Deciduous woodland; Natural England's Provisional ALC map (1:250,000, 1970s) had this area as grade 4, 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 listed building at the site

Checked on 11 September 2026. 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.
