Summary

Open Council Network is an independent organisation. We report on North West Leicestershire and are not the council. About us

The Planning Committee of North West Leicestershire Council is scheduled to consider two applications for self-build dwellings. These applications involve proposals for two dwellings on land adjacent to 49 Church Lane in Ravenstone, and one dwelling on land to the east of 56 Loughborough Road in Coleorton.

Permission in Principle for Self-Build Dwellings in Ravenstone

The committee is scheduled to review an application for Permission in Principle1 for the erection of two self-build dwellings on land adjacent to 49 Church Lane, Ravenstone. The report indicates a recommendation to permit this application.

Permission in Principle for Self-Build Dwelling in Coleorton

A further application for Permission in Principle is scheduled for discussion, concerning the erection of a single self-build dwelling on land to the east of 56 Loughborough Road, Coleorton. The report also suggests a recommendation to permit this proposal.


  1. Permission in Principle (PiP) is a type of planning permission that establishes whether the scale and nature of a proposed development are acceptable for a particular site. It is granted before a full planning application is submitted.
