Old School, Church Street, Market Lavington Tuesday 7:15 pm View DetailsMarket Lavington is a large, friendly and thriving village on the northern slopes of Salisbury Plain, situated about five miles south of Devizes. Market Lavington has always been a lively community, and for centuries was one of Wiltshire's foremost market towns, having been granted a royal charter in 1252 by Henry III.
Although it has all the character and charm of a traditional Wiltshire village, and is set in the midst of beautiful countryside, Market Lavington has always been a working community. Today its facilities include a Co-op supermarket, chemist, butcher, and post office, two hairdressers, a pub & restaurant with accommodation, cafe, takeaways and a number of small businesses, so you can buy almost anything you need in the village. We also have a pre-school, a primary school and a secondary school (all rated good, by OFSTED), a doctors' surgery, a library, a community hall, Old School Hall and our very own Village Museum!
The parish lies at the foot of the north western scarp slope of Salisbury Plain. It originally contained Easterton, now a separate civil parish, and Gore, now in West Lavington. The parish is long and narrow with Gault clay in the north, rising to a ridge of Upper Greensand at about 96 metres at Ledge Hill. This ridge is known as the Sands and was common land for many centuries. In the 18th century its light fertile soil provided suitable land for commercial orchards and market gardening. Half the parish is on the chalk uplands (military area) that rises to about 200m on Lavington Hill.

Proposed Neighbourhood Plan Review

Market Lavington Neighbourhood Plan Review
The Market Lavington Neighbourhood Plan was made in May 2021, and covered the period up to 2026. During the recent review of the Wiltshire Council Local Plan (formally the Core Strategy) Market Lavington, as a designated Local Service Centre, and deemed capable of supporting new housing development, is currently required to find space for another 55 homes in addition to the land already set aside for development in the existing Neighbourhood Plan.
The Parish Council is already aware of several areas in the village where developers are starting to show some interest. So in order to ensure that any further development proposals reflect local wishes in terms of location, design, and local need, we need to be proactive in planning for the future of our village - WITHOUT AN UPDATED PLAN WE WOULD NOT BE IN SUCH A STRONG POSTION TO OBJECT TO ANY UNWANTED DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS.
It is therefore considered that now is the appropriate time to undertake a review of the existing Market Lavington Neighbourhood Plan. The first stage of the review process would be to form a Steering Group, made up of local residents and Parish Councillors.
In order to gauge the opinions and appetite from the local community for undertaking such a review, could we please ask you to contact Carol the Parish Clerk with any comments, and indicate if you would be interested in being part of the Steering Group.
