Together,
We Make a Difference
The Earls Barton community is coming together to protect the character, heritage and future of our village.
Four major housing developments, proposing approximately 1,250 new homes, could significantly change the shape of Earls Barton for generations to come. As residents, we believe it is important that growth is managed responsibly and supported by the infrastructure, services and amenities our community needs.
Our volunteers are working hard to raise awareness, share information and support residents in understanding the proposals and responding through the official planning process.
If you care about preserving the unique identity of Earls Barton, we encourage you to explore the information on this website, learn more about the developments and make your views known.
Together, our voices are stronger. Together, we can help shape the future of our village.
Thank you for your support.
