Regulation 15 – submission of the draft Neighbourhood Plan May 2023
Finally, here is the Submission Neighbourhood Plan and attendant supporting documents. Some of the documents have been uploaded to this site already, some have been updated. The draft neighbourhood plan has changed the most because of changing circumstances – but read it for yourselves, all is explained.
As detailed below, we have been obliged to delay submitting the plan to Cherwell District Council for a couple of months but now the local elections are over we hope CDC will be conducting a Regulation 16 consultation very soon.

The documents linked here are:
- The Submission Neighbourhood Plan 2020-2040. This was unanimously approved by Deddington Parish Council at its meeting on March 15 and includes a site allocation and policies.
- The Final Site Asessment report, which lists the potential sites for development offered by landowners and their agents and how they were whittled down to one site to be allocated.
- A character study of the three villages that comprise Deddington Parish
- A map of the neighbourhood area covered by the Plan
- A Basic Conditions statement setting out how the Plan meets national and local planning regulations
- A Housing Needs Assessment carried out by AECOM, an independent consultancy
- Two Strategic Environmental Assessments reports on the various sites that have been offered, also produced by AECOM. Option 1 Assessment, Option 2 Assessment
- Responses to Regulation 14 consultation, part 1 and part 2
- A Consultation Statement explaining how the Neighbourhood Plan steering group consulted parishioners, stakeholders, landowners and businesses and how we kept them informed of progress.
- Evidence of need for new Deddington nursery
- The final Environment Report from AECOM
Regulation 14 Consultation - again!
.Thank you to everybody who responded to the Regulation 14 consultation on the Deddington Pre-Submission Neighbourhood Plan earlier. Unfortunately there is one document that was missing before. This was the full Draft SEA report by AECOM (in addition to the two site reports and Housing Needs Assessment by AECOM). It is a requirement of the neighbourhood plan process that this full report be circulated and publicised. So here it is.
You have six weeks to respond to it if you wish – the deadline being May 6, 2023. Please send your comments to info@deddingtonneighbourhoodplan.org or by post to Parish Office, Windmill Centre, Hempton Road, Deddington, OX15 0QH (marked for the attention of Cllr Alan Collins and the DNP steering group).
We are sorry for our oversight (and the extra reading for you). This additional consultation should not delay the neighbourhood plan process because as it turns out, Cherwell District Council will not proceed to the next stage – the Regulation 16 consultation, with the plan modified in light of your responses – during the pre-election period. CDC put off certain decision-making and consultations until after the local elections on May 4 2023.

Results of the informal Neighbourhood Plan Survey in Deddington Parish
November 2022
Introduction
The Deddington Neighbourhood Plan steering group conducted a survey in June this year (2022) to guide us in creating a neighbourhood plan covering the years 2020 to 2040. Around 1,050 booklets were delivered to every household in the parish and 405 responses were received – a few more via Survey Monkey than on paper. This is considered a pretty good response and we are very grateful to everyone who answered what was a lengthy document.
Underlying the survey were two reports carried out by AECOM, an infrastructure consulting firm. One assessed housing need, which was set at 126 dwellings to the end of the plan period – from which 56 homes granted consent since 2019 could be deducted. The other assessed the sustainability of the sites offered for development, taking into account considerations of landscape, historic environment, and value to the community in terms of health, convenience, transportation and eco viability.
The first part of the survey invited parishioners to vote on which of the 14 sites offered by landowners they preferred for development. The second part focused on the 16 neighbourhood plan draft policies.
Your votes and comments – well over a thousand of them - have been hugely helpful to us in creating the draft plan. And, of course, to satisfy Cherwell District Council and ultimately the government examiner, we have to take into account other planning considerations as well. The resulting pre-submission Neighbourhood Plan (NP) will be put to a Regulation 14 consultation for consideration by Cherwell District Council and other statutory consultees very shortly. Ultimately the completed plan will be put before an examiner and then to a referendum of the parish.
Below we include links to the following comprehensive results of the NP survey:
Voting on the sites for potential allocation
Comments on potential site allocation
Summary of voting on Neighbourhood Plan policies
Comments on Neighbourhood Plan policies 1-10
Comments on Neighbourhood Plan policies 11-16 and Community Guidance
