Planning

The Property is a strategic development site which originally gained outline planning permission in 2016 through a Local Development Order (LDO). The parameter plans for the subsequent reserved matters proved too restrictive and therefore a detailed planning application was submitted and granted in 2018 for the erection of 220 dwellings to include commercial Use Classes A1 (shops) and A3 (restaurants and cafes).A separate planning application was granted in December 2021 for Phase 1, which includes 34 dwellings.

Interested parties should rely on their own enquiries with West Lindsey District Council planning department.
