A planning application for 131 homes on land off Main Road in Middleton Cheney has been refused.

South Northamptonshire Council’s Development Control Committee have said that the development doesn't make sufficient contributions to the community such as provision of affordable housing, contribution to healthcare or education facilities.

There's also concerns the existing drain network would not be able to support the development.

The decision's already been appealed by the applicant - Benfield Holdings - so a new submission's expected to be made.
