WNF response to Local Plan
Thank you to members who sent us comments on our draft response to the Stockport Local Plan. Amendments are highlighted in the text on the link. A version without highlights will be sent to the Council.

We are acutely aware of the conflict between avoiding the harms of loss of Green Belt and farmland vs. the benefits of greater security of the remaining Green Belt conferred by an up to date Stockport Local Plan that meets the Government's target housing numbers. We are also aware of the risks of Government intervention if the plan fails, potentially resulting in greater Green Belt losses. Our response aims to make a constructive contribution to achieving the best Local Plan possible in the challenging circumstances we all face.

Planning Application for Hall Moss Lane site
Jones Homes have submitted a planning application for 250 dwellings on the Hall Moss Lane site in Bramhall with an access road on to Hall Moss Lane in Woodford.

The draft new Stockport Local Plan for consultation has been published for Council meetings on 24th and 27th October. If approved at these meetings, the plan will go out for public consultation commencing 6th November.
A local plan is a wide ranging plan, which covers many aspects of planning for the future of Stockport, but we know that many residents will be concerned about which areas are allocated for development.
We have extracted part of the map which shows the proposed new land categories in and near Woodford. The areas marked with orange cross hatching indicate areas to be taken out of Green Belt and allocated for housing development.
