Final decision on future of Thorpe Woods due by the 30th January

Following the decision by Broadland District Council to turn down the application to build 300 houses over a large area of Thorpe Woods the developers, Socially Conscious Capital, appealed against the decision. As a consequence a public inquiry was held at the end of May 2018.

Since then we have been holding our breath for the planning inspectors decision, initially we thought that this may become available after a couple of months and then it was delayed until the 14th January.

As a consequence of ill health we now believe that the planning inspectors decision will be published on or before the 30th January. 

We shall publish the decision as soon as we become aware of it.
