Woodcote House Land:

Woodcote House estate at Leek Wootton belongs to Warwickshire Police and is available for development.

There is sufficient land at Woodcote to provide a natural and logical extension to the Village that is capable of containing the required level of development within an established landscape framework and without impacting on the openness of the green belt overall or harming the setting of the listed Woodcote House.

Warwickshire Police support the principle of neighbourhood planning and have already expressed a willingness to work with the Parish Council in relation to the future of their landholding at Woodcote.

The particular characteristics of the landholding at Woodcote, not being land in agricultural use, mean that any development at Woodcote could be aligned with the 'Garden Village Attributes' aspired to in the emerging local plan.
