Land bounded by Rivers Colne and Ver and Radlett Road, Frogmore

Planning application no. 5/2025/0111

Outline application (all matters reserved) – a mixed-used development comprising approximately 183 new dwellings (Class C3), up to 579sqm of workspace (Class E(c), E(g)), up to 410sqm of community space (Class F2(a), F2(b), F2(b) and up to 265sqm café (Class E(b)), along with approximately 14ha of open space, associated access and routes, hard and soft landscaping and car and cycle parking.

The proposed development site is in the Green Belt, and is not proposed for allocation in the Draft Local Plan. We entirely refute the applicant’s assertions that the first purpose of the Green Belt has no relevance in this case and that this site constitutes ‘grey belt’ under the present legal definitions. We urge the Council to refuse permission for this inappropriate speculative development.
