We have been instructed to submit a response to Charnwood Borough Council's (the "Council") consultation on the draft Charnwood Local Plan 2019-36 (the "Draft Plan"). Responses are invited by 16 December, and this response is therefore submitted in time. Our client has serious concerns with the limits to development proposed for Queniborough, and requests that the Draft Plan is amended around the curtilage of Old Hall, to retain the existing limits to development, and to retain the Old Hall within the settlement boundary. The reasons for the requested amendment are set out below. We would note at the outset that our client as landowner was not consulted on the proposals that directly affect their property. This is contrary to guidance in the UK Government's Planning Practice Guidance, which states: "At an early stage in the plan-making process strategic policy-making authorities will need to work alongside infrastructure providers, service delivery organisations, other strategic bodies such as Local Enterprise Partnerships, developers, landowners and site promoters.

  • Street | Queniborough | Leicestershire | LE7 3DB
    Main Street | Queniborough | Leicestershire | LE7 3DB Main Street, Queniborough Leicestershire LE7 3DB Queniborough is a truly charming north Leicestershire village which despite its increase in size and population over the years, has retained the feel of a small rural community. Built around a traditional village main street with an array of buildings, many of them ivy clad or having thatched roofs, dating between the 16th and 20th centuries, Queniborough benefits from a highly regarded primary school, a parish church, post office and general store; a news agent, hairdressing salon, and a traditional butcher. Unusually, Queniborough has 2 village public houses sitting side by side and both well known locally for their friendly atmosphere, cuisine and a selection of ales.. St Mary's church lies on the eastern edge of the village. Dating back in part to the 13th century it is thought by many to have the finest spire in the county. 5 Main Street has an impressive 224m 2 of internal floor space on a generous plot with a south facing rear garden, the current asking price therefore represents very good value for money. Requiring modernization and upgrading throughout but enjoying a commanding position in the village, the buyer will have the opportunity to significantly increase the value of this large family home. Convenient for the primary school, parish church, village shops and public houses with additional amenities in nearby Syston, Queniborough also offers excellent road and rail links for the commuter. Built approx 32 years ago by the present owner, we anticipate a high level of interest in this impressive 4/5 bedroom property with 3/4 reception rooms in arguably one of the most sought after parts of the highly desirable north Leicestershire village of Queniborough.

  • Area Forum Consultation Document - June 2007
    Charnwood Together Consultation Paper PROPOSALS FOR SETTING UP AREA FORUMS IN CHARNWOOD INTRODUCTION Charnwood Together is inviting comments on proposals to establish “Area Forums” (or “Community Forums”) covering the whole of the Borough of Charnwood. These proposals have been developed in response to decisions of Leicestershire Together, the county level Local Strategic Partnership, to promote the creation of such Forums across the whole County of Leicestershire. Area Forums will contribute to revitalised local democracy and effective community engagement across the Borough by facilitating public engagement with elected representatives. They will provide Forums for local issues to be raised with the appropriate local authority or other agency. It will bring Borough, County and Parish Council elected representatives together with partners to focus on local issues. Leicestershire Together has invited district Local Strategic Partnerships across Leicestershire to develop and implement Forums in ways that best meet local circumstances. To assist this process Leicestershire Together agreed a framework for the creation of these Forums – a Neighbourhood Engagement Policy Statement. That Policy Statement has been considered and adapted by Charnwood Together to form the proposals set out in this consultation document. The proposed Neighbourhood Engagement Policy Statement for Charnwood sets out the rationale which underpins the development of Area Forums. Highlighted below are the key issues relating to the operation of the Area Forums in Charnwood.
