Kenilworth planning roundup: Roundabout homes, primary school and 291 houses
By James Smith 20th Jul 2024
Here are the biggest local planning stories from the past week.
Roundabout Homes
Two new homes could be built right next to St John's roundabout, if plans are signed off by the district council.
RichSmart Homes Ltd has applied for planning permission to build the two detached homes on a piece of land between the railway line and the houses fronting onto Warwick Road.
Plans show the homes would each have three bedrooms and five parking spaces would be provided on the site.
Major New Estate
Detailed plans for a further 291 new homes in Kenilworth and a new local centre and takeaway have been put forward to Warwick District Council.
The application forms phase three of Charles Church's major development at Thickthorn which will eventually see 550 new homes built.
Phase one of the estate - 98 homes - is already under construction, with phase two - another 144 houses - approved in June by the council.
Primary School Plans
A £6 million project to create nearly 200 extra places at a Kenilworth Primary School has been pushed back a year, local councillors have announced.
The budget for the works at St John's Primary School and Nursery were signed off by Warwickshire County Council (WCC) last year, with work on site hoped to be completed for this September's intake.
But with a planning application for the project still yet to be determined, local Liberal Democrats have confirmed the project is now not expected to be completed until September 2025.
