A developer has recently delivered a leaflet to a small number of households showing an illustration of 50 houses proposed on the Butts Batch field. This is not a formal planning application and the layout shown is only an artist’s impression. It carries no planning status at this stage.

The leaflet has caused understandable concern, especially as it was shared so selectively and without clear information. Please be reassured that:

No planning application has yet been submitted to North Somerset Council.

The proposal shown in the leaflet is speculative and has no official standing.

The Butts Batch site has already been judged to be an unsustainable site for development by North Somerset Council and a previous development was refused by a Planning Inspector at Appeal.

Keep Wrington as Wrington will closely monitor any developments and provide clear guidance the moment anything formal appears.

For now, residents do not need to respond to the leaflet. When and if a planning application is lodged, we will publish step-by-step instructions on how to comment or object.

Our aim is to ensure the village receives accurate, timely and trustworthy information so that the community can respond effectively when it matters
