Leicestershire surrounds the city of Leicester and includes Loughborough, Hinckley, Coalville, Melton Mowbray and Market Harborough, plus many villages. There is no Green Belt, although local plans use green wedges and areas of separation to keep settlements apart. Typical sites include edge-of-town and village fields, farm buildings, infill plots and former industrial land around Coalville and the north-west of the county.
Before we make an offer in Loughborough
Neighbours' amenity
Overlooking, loss of light and outlook are the issues planners weigh most often.
Trees
Protected trees or trees in a conservation area can limit what fits.
Services
Connections for drainage, water and power need to be reachable.
Since 6 August 2026, non-major development on sites of 0.2 hectares or less in England has generally been exempt from mandatory biodiversity net gain, unless priority habitat is affected. That makes many small sites simpler to bring forward.
Leicestershire has no designated Green Belt, so the main policy questions near Loughborough are usually the settlement boundary, landscape and access.
