Town & Country Planning - The site was included in the original planning consent of the wider development, as part of the S.106 agreement for the Parish Council to build a village hall. This was approved under planning reference 14/00161/FULM. A village hall development was approved under subsequent planning application ref: 20/00445/FUL. This permission has not been implimented due to costs.

A pre-application enquiry has been submiited, which is to vary the S106 agreement to 'unlink' the Community Facilities Contribution from the Strawberry Fields development for use elsewhere. A letter that was sent to the Council back in January 2024 from the Parish sets out the request. The site would therefore no longer be needed for community use, as this would be distributed elsewhere in the village. The proposed dwellings have been put forward on the basis that the land would no longer be required for a village hall and therefore could be utilised for additional self build dwellings.

The site is situation in a Principal Village, within the Main Open Area. The site is also included in the allocation policy (ST/MU/1) in the emerging local plan, which is yet to be adopted.
