Planning Application Glebe Road Development

A planning application has been submitted to Rutland County Council to fell the three lime trees on the Glebe Road site where the three houses are being built. This was not in the original planning application and the trees are in a conservation area.

North Luffenham Parish Council will be discussing the application and a response. Residents may wish to submit their own responses and the application and information on how to do this is on the link below

Storm Damage on The Oval

If walking on The Oval that there is a large broken branch, assumed from the storm damaged, caught in a tree waiting to drop. This is right above the pathways through the trees at the back of the cricket club. There are possibly other tree affected. NLPC will be engaging a firm to clear the debris from the storm.

Bonfire Night; thank you to all volunteers from NLPC

North Luffenham Parish Council would like to thank all the volunteers who helped to make bonfire night a success. It was a good parish event; people were generous with their donations so that costs were well covered and there will be a surplus.

Thanks also to those who helped with the clear up. It is much appreciated.
