Nettleham Neighbourhood Plan 2023-2040

This revised and updated plan is based on the original 2016 plan but with more emphasis on providing general design codes to better reflect the character of the village, and specific design codes for the 3 new building sites identified in the emerging CLLP review.  Climate change is another significant area of consideration in the plan review and the plan has now includes elements of the Nettleham Parish Council’s Climate Change Strategy.  In addition more local green spaces have been identified, and settlement breaks have been introduced to reduce the risk of the village merging with the closer surrounding villages.
