Planning Permission
The Planning Inspectorate allowed the appeal in a decision dated 4 June 2025 (APP/W2845/W/23/3318366), granting outline planning permission for up to 45 dwellings. The scheme shall include 40% affordable housing (7 one bed homes, 5 two bed homes and 6 three bed homes), infrastructure and open space, in accordance with outline application Ref: DA/2020/0479, subject to various conditions. The outline application considered the access, but matters of appearance, landscaping, layout and scale to be reserved for consideration later. During the application process, the proposed development was reduced in scale to meet the specific needs of the Flore Parish Housing Need Report dated March 2021. Cora Homes (formerly Barwood Homes Limited) have acted throughout the planning process on behalf of the landowners as the Promoter. Cora Homes are not prospective purchasers.
