Hilperton Parish Council will be holding an extraordinary meeting on Tuesday 7th November.

It will start at 6.00pm in the village hall lounge, NOT the main hall. The lounge can be accessed from the side of the building nearest to the playing field.

The main reason for the meeting is so that members of the public, and the parish council, can receive a presentation from, and ask questions of, a director of Charlcombe Homes regarding their amended plans for housing south of Devizes Road ‘adjacent’ to The Grange.

The original application was objected to by the parish council, refused by the local WC planning committee, and an appeal against the decision was dismissed. However, the High Court has now quashed the appeal decision and so a new Hearing will take place sometime in the future.

Meanwhile, the applicant has drastically amended plans which they seek public comment on.
