All Stretton Village Society’s Role in Planning

All Stretton is in the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and much of the village sits within the Conservation Area; both of these designations mean that we are under more stringent planning considerations. Of note the village society is not a statutory consultee for planning purposes, that role is held at the Parish level by Church Stretton Town Council. As such we comment on applications on a non statutory basis and our views are taken into consideration by Church Stretton Town Council as they formulate their response, and by Shropshire County Council when they make thier planning determinations.

Your Involvement & Public Consultation

The Village Society is here to represent the interests of the village and villagers so please do approach us if you have any concerns regarding a planning situation; we will take action accordingly. Equally you’re encouraged to make comments directly to Shropshire Council in writing or on their website (https://www.shropshire.gov.uk/planning/).  Again we can assist you in doing so if asked.

From time to time, major planning issues arise and a public consultations may be initiated. The All Stretton Village Society will canvass villager’s views in such instances and forward them onto the town and county councils.
