Plans rejected for new care home in Kibworth
Councillors acted because they said the blueprint was outside the Neighbourhood Plan
A proposed new care home in Kibworth has been turned down.
Lincolnshire-based Tanglewood Care Homes wanted to build the 72-bedroom development on Fleckney Road, Kibworth Beauchamp.
But Harborough District Council’s planning committee last night (Tuesday) refused to give the scheme the go-ahead after over 60 local people objected.
Councillors acted because they said the blueprint was outside the Neighbourhood Plan for the Kibworths.
The home would have created 60 full-time jobs if it had been built.
