Up to 205 homes will be built west of Westbury Road in Warminster after plans were approved by Wiltshire Council. Bill Parks, councillor for Warminster North and Rural said it was a bitter outcome. Local residents, Warminster Town Council, Upton Scudamore Parish Council and local MP Andrew Murrison all objected to the plans by Barratt Homes.
Cllr Parks said: “The committee voted to support planning officers’ recommendation to approve this application. Yet another example in the county of the lack of a five year Housing Land Supply tilting the balance. The argument was lost, which will deliver the wrong houses in the wrong location on a greenfield site outside the settlement boundary.”
