Here are the biggest local planning stories from the past week.

A planning application has been submitted to create a new traveller site on the outskirts of Warwick, near the M40.

Philip Brown Associates Limited has put forward a scheme to Warwick District Council (WDC) to turn an agricultural field along Henley Road into a new base for 12 families.

The application says the residents - who now own the site - do not currently have a lawful place to park their caravans, and the new site would allow them a permanent home.

A long section of fence in Kenilworth may have to be removed after district planners said it was "incongruous" and "harmful" to the local area.

Some 156 metres of fence around a patch of land on Crewe Lane was installed in 2022, with a retrospective planning application for it recently submitted to Warwick District Council (WDC).

The plans also included a further 86 metres of metal fencing, all of which would be 1.8 metres high.

The application to Warwick District Council says the new business would conduct "diagnosis and treatment of injuries and illnesses in animals".
