Supermarkets

Over the past twelve years there have been three applications for building a supermarket on the edge of the town.  The third application has just been lodged by Tesco.  This development will have a major impact on our town and has already attracted the attention of the national media.  Please take the time to study our reasons for opposing this development.    

Hadleigh's Conservation Area

In 1965 the Council for British Archaeology published a list of 324 historic towns of which 51 were considered to be of special importance - "so splendid and so precious that ultimate responsibility for them should be a national concern".

This led the County Planning Authority to propose a conservation area.

Updating the Local Plan

Babergh is in the process of updating the Local Plan and has published the Babergh Local Plan Alteration No 2 Issues Report for consultation.  You can find it here. The Hadleigh Society Executive Committee has responded with a series of comments the content of which can be found here.

The Hadleigh Society monitors all planning applications that might affect the town.   It often makes observations but from time to time a major proposal gives rise to a major and comprehensive activity.
