This week, we have rounded up five of the most interesting planning applications that have been submitted to Buckinghamshire Council for decision.

They include the formation of a tennis court in Chalfont St Peter, the building of a temporary home for rural workers at a planned new rabbit farm in Coleshill and signage for a new dessert parlour in High Wycombe.

24 New Road, Tylers Green - demolition of the existing house in place of two semi-detached homes and car port

Two “sustainable” semi-detached houses could be built after the existing house is knocked down.

The applicants say the new houses would be similar in scale and proportions to other homes on the road, but would have a “bold, innovative, contemporary modern design”.

Cllr Katrina Wood, who also lives on New Road, said the new houses would be “unacceptably dominant and overbearing”.

Unit 5, 27-31 White Hart Street, High Wycombe - new signage for dessert parlour

There was excitement when it was revealed Creams dessert parlour is opening up in the town.

Now, the plans are moving forward, as the eatery has applied for new signage to be put up.

The main new sign across the top will be black powder coated corrugated material, with Creams written in white.

101 Dashwood Avenue, High Wycombe - extension to existing HMO

This house in multiple occupation (HMO) could be extended with a single storey if new plans are given the green light.

The extension would provide a pantry and a shower room for residents.

Land on Magpie Lane, Amersham Road, Coleshill - temporary rural workers dwelling and agricultural building with access and parking

The applicants want to create a free range rabbit farm which will occupy around two acres of the land.

The plan has not please everyone. Stephen Lever, who runs the Hart and Magpies pub on Magpie Lane, said having a rabbit farm so close to a commercial kitchen “does not bear thinking about”.

He said: “There would also be a concern of other creatures, rats, mice and foxes, which could become a huge issue for us.”

He also raised fears about unpleasant smells, adding: “No rabbit farms please.”

Chalfont St Peter Tennis Club, Gravel Hill, Chalfont St Peter - formation of a tennis court and installation of six floodlighting columns

The tennis club wants to install six new floodlight columns to allow for tennis activities to continue throughout the year in the late afternoons and evenings when it gets dark.

It also wants to clear land to the western side of the existing clubhouse to make way for a new junior mini tennis court.

They said this will help meet the needs of the growing junior members - of which there are 106 - of the club who currently have only limited access to the main tennis courts.
