Land East of Tring

Planning application no. 25/01880/MOA

Hybrid application (with access details of two main access points from Bulbourne Road and Station Road in Full and the main development on the rest of the site in Outline with all matters reserved) for the demolition of all existing buildings on the site and the development of up to 1,400 dwellings (including up to 140 Use Class C2 dwellings); a new local centre and sports/community hub; primary school; secondary school; and public open spaces including creation of a SANG.

The proposed development site is in the Green Belt and in the setting of the Chilterns National Landscape. CPRE Hertfordshire was a member of the Combined Objectors Group at the planning appeal inquiry into refusal of the previous application on this site (ref: APP/A1910/W/22/3309923, see further information on our website) and the appeal was dismissed. The extensive Planning Statement accompanying this application is largely a repeat of the material previously presented and rejected by the Secretary of State at appeal, apart from arguing that the site constitutes ‘grey belt’. We entirely refute this and request the Council to refuse permission for this inappropriate speculative development.
