Existing Precedent

A previous appeal on this exact land for just 9 homes was dismissed as it was deemed harmful... An increase to 150 only makes these issues worse

Proposed Plans

A large new development threatens Ansley's beloved landscape and rural village life as we know it.

150

~150 New homes proposed to the detriment of character landscape and rural village life.

300

300+ more cars on top of existing infrastructure challenges

A well known housing developer is proposing to build up to 150 new homes on the fields behind Birmingham Road & Galley View in Ansley Village.

We feel these plans should be objected to and want your help to do so!

There are many reasons why this proposal is not suitable for Ansley Village. There is also existing precedent for this land with a previous appeal for just 9 houses being dismissed in March 2025. A core reason for this was the harm it would have on the rural character of the village, it's landscape and open fields.

A significantly larger proposal for up to 150 homes massively increases all of these harmful points and introduces even further strain on existing infrastructure that the village wouldn't be able to sustain.

We have formed a dedicated group of local residents planning to object to these new plans and do our best to protect Ansley and village life that we all know and love.

Current Situation

Pre-Planning Consulation Stage

  • Pre-Planning Consultation is open for comments until 19th June
  • Proposal portal is heavily weighted in developers favour and restricts free flowing answers
  • Objections and comments must be considered in full planning application
  • A lack of responses would show little local resistance and potentially make it easier to get approval
  • Full outline planning application expected to be submitted in Summer
