Neighbourhood Plan

The current plan

Residents voted on the plan at a referendum on 4 September 2025. The referendum version is published by Horsham District Council:

What a Neighbourhood Plan can do

A Neighbourhood Plan lets people who live and work here influence how Pulborough develops. It can be used to:

  • set out a shared vision for the parish
  • guide where new homes, shops and other development should go
  • identify and protect important local green spaces and other treasured assets
  • influence the design of new buildings and the mix of housing

The plan has to be consistent with Horsham District’s Local Plan and with national planning policy. It is about shaping development, not stopping it altogether.

Questions about the Neighbourhood Plan can be sent to the parish office via the Contact Us page.
