Off Little Marsh Road and Station Road, Marsh Gibbon, Buckinghamshire
Proposed New Homes and Public Open Space
Outline Planning Application Submitted
An outline planning application was submitted to Buckinghamshire Council (March 2025).
An outline planning application seeks to establish whether the scale and nature of a proposed development would be acceptable to the local planning authority, before a second fully detailed planning application is put forward, which is called a Reserved Matters.
Where outline permission has been granted, and within three years of the outline approval, an application for the outstanding Reserved Matters can be submitted, i.e., the information excluded from the initial outline planning application.
This will include information about the exact layout, scale and appearance of the new homes, as well as the details of the open space and landscaping.
