A planning application for a large Country House in the Ozleworth valley is very close to determination. This is at Scrubbetts - between Boxwell Court and Ozleworth Park. Location Map

RA Committee members views are divided on this issue, but a majority did vote that we write to the planning authority objecting to an inappropriate development in a quiet countryside area.

Gloucestershire County Council have also received a claim for a public right of way across the land in question.

Objectors are battling to stop this development, see their website www.nothanks.org.uk

After three applications, all of which have been turned down, the developer appears to have called it a day.
