LAND SOUTH OF MEADOW LANE
Ryhall, Rutland

Welcome to Manor Oak Homes’ public consultation website for our proposed new development at Land South of Meadow Lane, Ryhall.

Our Vision:

Manor Oak Homes are pleased to announce they are promoting the land south of Meadow Lane, Ryhall for a new residential-led development of up to 63 new homes including market and affordable housing, and areas of publicly accessible open space.

Manor Oak Homes will shortly be submitting an outline planning application at Land South of  Meadow Lane, Ryhall for the construction of:

‘Up to 63 dwellings, together with associated public open space, a Local Equipped Area for Play, landscaping, highways and drainage infrastructure works.’

The application will seek to respond to the significant need for new homes in Rutland. RCC confirmed in May 2022 that it cannot demonstrate a required 5 year housing land supply. Therefore, there is an urgent need for suitable sites to come forward to deliver the much needed new housing.

The site was previously identified as a residential allocation by Rutland County Council (RCC) in an early draft of the Local Plan. RCC has recently withdrawn its emerging Local Plan from Examination.

The scheme seeks the:

• Delivery of a range of house types and sizes in a sustainable location.
• Provision of 30% affordable housing which will assist in meeting the local need for affordable housing.
• Creation of new open space with a play area providing opportunities for recreation and connections between new and existing communities.
• Through retention and enhancement of key habitat features, and delivery of sustainable urban drainage systems there will be an opportunity for a net gain in biodiversity.
• The site is well related to existing public transport and the proposal incorporates opportunities for walking and cycling.

This website provides outline details of the scheme and we welcome your views and comments on our proposals.

Next Steps

It is proposed to submit the planning application to Rutland County Council at the end of Summer 2022. Access to the full suite of documents comprising the application will be available to view on the Council’s website shortly afterwards.
