    Rutland County Council Local Plan 2016 – 2036 Land west of Uppingham Road – Policies H1.2 / Statement of Common Ground between: Rutland County Council (RCC) and Pegasus Planning on behalf of Davidsons Developments Limited November 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This ‘Statement of Common Ground’ (SoCG) has been prepared jointly by Rutland County Council (RCC) and Pegasus Planning on behalf of Davidsons Developments Limited in respect of the proposed residential allocation at Land west of Uppingham Road, Oakham (Policy H1.2 of the emerging Rutland Local Plan). Policy H1.2 and the associated allocation and propose an indicative capacity of 73 homes, 21 of which are proposed to be affordable. This capacity is based on the Rutland County Council’s formula applied to sites in Oakham and may be subject to change following site assessments and development of detailed design taking into account the site’s context and securing a high quality urban design solution. Pegasus Planning on behalf of Davidsons Developments Limited consider that Policy H1.2 should be amended to refer to an indicative capacity of 90 dwellings as master planning work demonstrates that the site is capable of accommodating a higher number of dwellings whilst delivering a high quality solution. The policy and allocation have been informed by evidence that has been collected to date, which considers the implications of growth and whether the development and supporting infrastructure is deliverable. The purpose of the Statement of Common Ground is to inform the Inspector of the Rutland Local Plan and other interested parties about the areas of agreement between Rutland County Council and the site promoter (Pegasus Planning on behalf of Davidsons Developments Limited) contained in policy H1.2 of the Rutland Local Plan (2016-2036).

Although situated just outside the Parish boundary, Bringhurst Primary School was included in the designated area of the Neighbourhood Plan. This reflected the importance to the community of the local School and was endorsed by Bringhurst, Drayton & Nevill Holt Parish Meeting. The Great Easton Neighbourhood Plan Advisory Committee was established to prepare a Plan that would deliver the long term goals of a balanced and vibrant neighbourhood. Since becoming established, we have held many public meetings, both general open events and specific discussions with groups of, for example, school children and older people; prepared a village questionnaire to seek the views of local residents and other stakeholders (including landowners), groups and businesses who share an interest in Great Easton.

  • Great Easton Settlement Profile Introduction
    Great Easton Settlement Profile Introduction General Location: Great Easton sits in the Welland Valley, in the most south-eastern tip of the Harborough District and along with Hallaton, is one of the largest parishes in south-east Leicestershire. The parish, as well as Harborough District itself, borders Rutland County from Eyebrook Reservoir to its south-eastern tip, where the parish is dissected by the A6003. Great Easton also borders the Borough of Corby, which lies to the immediate south. Neighbours within the Harborough District include Bringhurst, Drayton and Nevill Holt (from west to north-west) and Stockerston (from the north-east to east). The A427 passes to the south of the parish, providing access to Market Harborough which is approximately 10 miles away, although Corby is the nearest town to the village being only half the distance. The parish occupies a relatively large size, with its elongated form being the length of 1 mile east-west, but stretching for up to 3 miles north-south. Great Easton falls within the District of Harborough, but as the boundaries of Harborough Parliamentary constituency differ to those of Harborough District, the village forms part of the Rutland and Melton Parliamentary constituency. Great Easton is identified as a Selected Rural Village in the Core Strategy for the District and as such, is outlined as a settlement that would potentially benefit from the support of limited development such as rural housing. It is therefore important to understand the function, key characteristics, role, form, issues, problems, and ultimately sustainability of the settlement, in order to determine the appropriate level of development to be directed towards the settlement and to understand the local community’s aspirations for their village.
