Bayston Hill Parish Council are delighted that the application to build on our precious remaining central green space has been withdrawn. 

Chairman of the Council, Cllr Caroline Clode said “This is such a relief! The community have really pulled together to show its opposition to these plans. Over 200 objections were lodged on the Planning Portal, over 500 signatures have been collected opposing it as well as residents airing their concerns to local media.  

“Now we can move forward in supporting the application to designate this space as an official “Village Green” and protect it for everyone to enjoy for years to come.”

New boundaries are being proposed for council electoral divisions in Shropshire Council. 

The Local Government Boundary Commission wants to hear what residents and local organisations think about the proposals. A 10-week consultation on the proposals will run until 10 July 2023. 

You can see the proposals here Shropshire | LGBCE

The Parish Council on 12th June 2023 resolved to submit the following comments

  • Retain a single member division for Bayston Hill as it better serves our interests
  • A single member could better focus on the needs of Bayston Hill
  • BH has its own identity to be retained and this format has always worked well.
  • BH is a geographically compact area for one member to serve.
