Game on! The developers behind the Diocese of Chichester’s plans to destroy the Glebe Field have submitted their Planning Application:
Application DC/16/2108 – Proposed demolition of the existing Glebe Surgery, and erection of a new 1,400 sqm doctors surgery, 120 sqm new pharmacy, and 59 associated car parking spaces; and the erection of 24 No. dwellings (including 8 affordable units) and 58 associated car parking spaces…
If you care about Storrington, its historic fabric and its beautiful Glebe Field you need to act NOW!
IMPORTANT: We have just weeks to round up as many objections as possible – or we risk losing the Glebe Field forever. Your opinion counts!

Remember to Reference: DC/16/2108
You can object on the following grounds:
- Design (is the mega-surgery really the right design?);
- Highway Access and Parking (can Tesco roundabout take more traffic, more pollution?);
- Loss of General Amenity (farewell to our Green Space…);
- Over-development (too many houses already?);
- Privacy Light and Noise (especially you are living in the vicinity!);
- Trees and Landscaping;
- Other (such as heritage, proximity/encroachment on Listed Buildings etc)
- And the fact that this prospective development is contrary to local planning guidelines…
- And still does not address the key issue of the right healthcare facilities in the RIGHT location for the next 20 years…
And let us know you’ve lodged an objection by emailing secretary@savetheglebe.com
