Outline planning consent (232490) has been granted “up to” 50 dwellings on this site with means of access reserved.. This was a long standing application made in October 2023. We reported in our Alert of the 8th November 2024 that it then had Planning Officer approval,\

Land at 31 Barkham Ride
Â
We reported in our Alert of 3rd March 2025 that a full detailed planning application had been made (250267) on this land to extend the adjoining Victoria Gardens “park home” development by using the land at 31 for an additional 35 park homes together with a community building and park office. The site lies adjacent to Barkham Parish. Planning consent has now been granted.Â
There had been an earlier outline planning consent to grant planning consent (230791) on the site.
The site lies to the left (as you face from Barkham Ride) of the existing Victoria Gardens park home site and is adjacent to the Rooks Nest Country Park SANG.
This should be taken in the context of the planning application (223528) for 56 houses at 33 Barkham Ride (lying to the right hand side of Victoria Gardens – as you face from the road).
One should also bear in mind that the draft Local Plan includes both 31 and 33 Barkham Ride as the sites for approximately 80 dwellings.
