Chiswell Green Appeal allowed by Secretary of State
Citation:
The Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities has allowed two recovered planning appeals for major development in the Green Belt: (1) Chiswell Green South, a proposal by Cala Group Limited and REDINGTON CAPITAL LIMITED (in collaboration with Taylor Wimpey plc) including 391 dwellings and a new school and (2) Chiswell Green North, a proposal by Headlands Way Ltd for 330 all-affordable dwellings.
Following an inquiry in April-May 2023, The Planning Inspectorate’s Inspector Michael Boniface MSc MRTPI recommended that both appeals be allowed. The Secretary of State then recovered the appeals and has allowed them both.
Charlie Banner KC was leading counsel throughout for the successful appellants in Chiswell Green South.
