Car Parking Planning Application

Horley Views magazine is dropping through your letterbox this weekend. On page 21 is an item the Parish Council would urge you to read.

There is  a new planning application for car parking at the bottom of the village.  The application can now be found on the planning portal of Cherwell District Council at:

https://planningregister.cherwell.gov.uk

by searching “Horley” or the application reference number, which is 22/01653/F .  You can then access plans and other documents.

It is important that villagers make their views known about this application online.
