Approved on 22 Aug 2025 · Committee Decision · Last checked 18 Oct 2026
Planning committee
Decided by Cheltenham Planning Committee on 21 Aug 2025.
Approved unanimously
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because the replacement hut was appropriately designed and would cause no significant harm to landscape, drainage, neighbours or highways.
- A neighbour supported replacing the hut but raised concerns about its size, noise, possible increased use and its position near rear fences.
- The committee unanimously voted to permit the application, with nine members supporting the officer recommendation.
