Proposals for part of the field used for the May Fayre car park.
The Arnesby Village Hall Committee has submitted a change of use application for a small area of the field that is used as a car park during May Fayres. The application is to change the use of this land from agricultural to recreational and if approved the land will become a school playing field and a small village hall car park.
Notices giving details of this application have been posted on the Lutterworth Road. Any views about this proposal should be forwarded to Harborough District Council by 28th June. The background to this application and full details are available here» (pdf doc.) |
