   Awaiting decision

   Decision expected by 17 March 2025, 8 weeks from validation under the statutory target for most applications. Extensions of time are common and are agreed case by case.

   Exmoor National Park took a median of 48 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

This application is with Exmoor National Park for determination, against a statutory target of eight weeks. Over the last year Exmoor National Park decided reserved matters applications in a median of 53 days. More in our guide to how long planning decisions take.

A reserved matters application fills in the detail held back from an earlier outline permission, judged against that permission rather than the principle of development. More in our guide to planning application types.
