Whittlebury is a small village of some 236 households and a population of 589 (2011 Census) set on the edge of the historical royal hunting forest of Whittlewood. The earliest settlement has been traced to the Iron Age, and King Athelstan held court in Whittlebury in c.930AD. Our rural legacy can still be found today with many mature trees and views over the countryside surrounding the village with, in particular, the woods, parkland and deer park on the southern edge.

PLANNING APPLICATION FOR A LARGE STORAGE AND DISTRIBUTION FACILITY AT SHACKS BARN
The Parish Council would like to make all the village aware of a planning application for a large storage and distribution facility at the Shacks Barn site which is near the junction of the A413 and the A43.
The scale of the proposed development is out of keeping with the surroundings and granting permission will undoubtedly result in many extra HGVs travelling on the approach roads to Shacks Barn including potentially along Cow Pastures from the A5 and through the village. More »
The Parish Council has already lodged a full and comprehensive objection and everyone is asked to look at the details of the application on the West Northants Council planning portal: -

and raise an objection. The closing date for responses is the end of April and those responding are asked to post in the section headed 'Comments' and ensure that they use the drop down menu under the heading 'Type of comment' and click 'Objection'. » Less
