PLANNING
2021 - SNDC (VCHAP) - Village Clusters Housing Allocations Plan
4 areas in our village have been proposed for housing
and non-residential development.
The plan also includes 5 areas in Thurton which have
been linked with Ashby due to their adjoining boundaries. South
Norfolk District Council is suggesting 'appropriate opportunities
for sustainable development' are desired for the 'ongoing vitality'
of its villages.
HISTORY - Your parish council produced a 2005 Parish Plan in
which the views expressed by 98% of its respondent residents
resulted in its conclusion that for many valid reasons, any
new development was neither warranted nor necessary in our village.
Ashby parish council is resolute in the opinion that the views
of its residents should remain respected.
PLANS - The development plans, currently open to consultation,
show sites which could include not only housing but also commercial
premises being built on greenfield sites outside the existing
village 'main settlement' or 'development boundary'.
PLANNERS DECISION - To their credit, in the case of every site
the district council's planning department have concluded all
should be rejected, citing many reasons including highway concerns,
access constraints, connectivity, landscaping, adversely affecting
the rural character, transport links, and crucially they are
all outside the development boundary.
To view the potential areas of development, see the MAPS at

to affect Ashby St Mary.
The most recent communication to reach the Parish Council (November
2013) from South Norfolk District Council shows the map of Thurton
and Ashby no longer has a site highlighted for allocation, confirmed
by the statement within it that “no sites have been allocated
for development due to a lack of sites that are both suitable
for development and deliverable within the Plan period”.
This is the confirmation that no sites have been allocated in
Ashby or Thurton under the Local Plan for Development. The
previously proposed Mill Common housing development is not proceeding.

This information will remain shown for the foreseeable
future in case parishioners find the need to refer to it.

FINANCE (ANNUAL)
During 2004,
South Norfolk District Council made your Parish Council
aware of the importance of producing a plan for the parish.
Every parish was recommended to produce one not only to
identify the aims of a Parish Council, but also to identify
potential actions which were not supported by its residents.
After seeking the views of every household in the parish,
Ashby St Mary published its Parish Plan in 2005.
A boxed CD version of the Parish Plan for Ashby St Mary
can be purchased for just £2 plus p&p or delivered
free of p&p to any address within the Parish. The Clerk
to Ashby St Mary can provide details of this. For the Parish
Clerk's contact details please click HERE
To view the Parish Plan for Ashby St Mary which contains
28 pages and is in .pdf format, click on the title below.
