Rushcliffe Borough Council approved a flawed
and incomplete SPD. We launched a Judicial
Review. RBC RBC changed their SPD to fall
into line with all of our challenges. This
put RBC into an unlawful position.
Our Judicial Review continues. Please help
us fund our legal action against Rushcliffe:

  • Press Release: 12/01/26

    This evening we have sent out a press release about an item which has caused us an enormous amount of concern. We feel sure members of the public will also be concerned, and we ask you to contact you RBC councillors to show them how you feel. You can read the press release here

  • SNAG demo

    This is just a quick note to let you know that members of the SNAG committee will be forming a brief demonstration outside the side entrance to Rushcliffe Arena (the councillors use the side entrance, not the main/public one). on Tuesday 13th January 2026. We will be there from 18.30 – 19.00, prior to the…

  • Press Release: 10/01/26

    This morning we sent out a press release which shares our concerns over Rushcliffe Borough Council’s supplementary planning document (SPD) and the way it is being railroaded through an approval process when bodies including National Highways and Nottinghamshire County Council say it is incomplete. You can read the press release here. If you are also…

  • New photos

    We’ve added a few ‘new’ photographs to our document library. These are aerial photographs of the airfield which you may not have seen before! These photographs – from August 1947 – are images we are working on (which is why some of the photographs have areas – or items – of interest circled), as we…

The 1st thing we know is major aircraft fabrication took place in the two main hangars at RAF Tollerton. Those hangars exist no longer. The 2nd thing we know…

  • Early results

    We’re breaking down the results of the consultation responses on Taylor-Wimpey’s supplementary planning document. A total of 51 objections to the SPD were made on the grounds of ‘contamination’. This is the single largest number of objections for any single category so far. We’ll continue breaking down and categorising the responses to the SPD consultation…
