1996 District local plan

The East Northamptonshire Local Plan, adopted in 1996, has now mostly been replaced. However, a small number of its policies still remain in force, as detailed below:

• Policy AG4   -   Re-use and Adaptation of Buildings in the Countryside
• Policy AG9   -   Replacement Dwellings in the Countryside
• Policy RL3   -   Recreational Open Space Provision by Developers
• Policy RL4   -   Children’s Play Areas
• Policy S5     -   Non Shopping Uses within the Defined Shopping Frontages
• IR1-A           -   Provision for Housing in Irthlingborough

The policies are not extant in every parish due to the adoption of more recent policy guidance. You can check, on a parish by parish basis, all relevant extant policies by using the following link.
