Over 500 consultation letters have been issued by us to local residents and consultees and we encourage comment on the application, which will be considered carefully, balancing all aspects, before officers and our planning committee reaches a final decision. As a rural district, there will understandably be demand for development, like this, within reach of our county town and its retail facilities, where residents can benefit from main transport links and increased employment opportunities, whilst also enjoying the rich culture and beautiful countryside that Babergh has to offer.

Two major new housing developments for Dorset are being considered by councillors this week TWO development sites which may bring almost 200 homes to Gillingham are being considered by Dorset councillors this week. Eighty homes are being proposed north of Common Mead Lane and up to 115 south east of Lodden Lakes with access to the site from New Road. Both applications come as ‘in principle’ requests and, if approved, will be followed with detailed designs at a later stage. Northern area planning committee members are being recommended to grant both developments when they meet in Sturminster Newton on Thursday. The 80-home scheme, over 4 hectares, includes 25% ‘affordable’ housing, a local play area, outdoor sports areas and contributions to school places, bus services and improvements to rights of way.
