Homes rejection overturned by inspector

November 06, 2025

MORE THAN 70 OBJECTIONS WERE RECEIVED FROM LOCAL RESIDENTS

- By EDDIE BISKNELL

EIGHTEEN homes can now be built in a Derbyshire village after a Government inspector overturned a scheme rejected by councillors.

Plans for 16 houses and two apartments have now been approved at appeal by Government inspector LN Hughes in Clifton Road, Clifton, having been rejected by Derbyshire Dales District Council in October last year.

Councillors had unanimously rejected the scheme from Mrs C Potter following more than 70 objections from residents due to highways safety issues, impact on the countryside and the risk of flooding. This included fears that it would merge Clifton into an Ashbourne suburb.

This rejection has now been overturned because the inspector perceived the benefits of more housing to outweigh the negatives of the scheme.
