  • 1 About 3 Years Ago, a Survey Was Carried out By
    Abtalk November 2009 News from Abthorpe November 2009 AFFORDABLE HOUSING About 3 years ago, a survey was carried out by South Northants Council to determine if there was a need for affordable housing in the village. Affordable housing is designed to allow people with strong connections to the village, e.g. they have grown up here, to continue to live in the village once they need their own home. The survey showed the need for only a couple of houses, too small to justify any development. However, there are adjacent villages with similar requirements, so a scheme has been drawn up where one development will serve the needs of Wappenham, Bradden and Slapton in addition to Abthorpe. Initially sites in Wappenham were examined, but none was found to be suitable. Slapton and Bradden were too small but a site in Brackley Lane has now been identified for possible development. This is the un-used field opposite the garages. It is, of course, outside the village envelope so is not available for commercial development. The current owner would be paid a price above agricultural land but well below housing land, a condition which is essential to make the housing affordable. Although the field extends behind the existing houses in Brackley Lane, the development will not use that part of the field. Editors Jill Tolson [email protected]; 857320 Keith Fenwick [email protected]; 857083 1 November 2009 Abtalk The houses will be owned by Northamptonshire Rural Housing Association and will be either wholly rented or part owned/part rented.

    South Northamptonshire Part 2 Local Plan 2011-2029 South Northamptonshire Local Plan (Part 2) Foreword South Northants is a great place to live, work and invest, with its two successful market towns, of Brackley and Towcester, the dynamic Silverstone circuit supporting the High Performance Technology and Motorsport Engineering sector, a wonderful landscape and villages, many of which contain conservation areas, reflecting the history and heritage that is the foundation of the District. The Local Plan embraces that backdrop and seeks to ensure any new development is good development in the right locations to support growth. This Local Plan for South Northants builds on the West Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy, by adding local detail including looking at the sustainability of our villages and providing a settlement hierarchy. The plan also reviews and reinstates confines for all the main villages across the District, to ensure they can grow in an appropriate way and proper scale. The Plan contains a series of new policies to guide the construction of all types of housing, such as starter homes, self-build and homes for older people to ensure greater housing choice is provided for all local residents. We want to support small scale appropriate local housing growth in accordance with the NPPF, in addition to the large housing sites that are under construction at Radstone Fields, Brackley, Towcester South and the edge of Northampton, This Plan sets out how. As a council we recognise that a strong economy is at the heart of our quality of life and the policies in the plan seek to retain the employment land we have as well as to increase the supply of new employment sites.
