Proposal for temporary accommodation on land off Edgar Mobbs Way, Northampton

On behalf of West Northamptonshire Council (WNC), a full planning application is currently being prepared by Frampton Town Planning Ltd (Framptons) for relocatable temporary accommodation on land off Edgar Mobbs Way, Northampton – please refer to site location plan via the blue button.

A total of 70 (1 and 2-bed) units are proposed on the site, together with supporting infrastructure including a Community Hub building, on-site laundry, refuse and cycle storage, and equipped children’s play area. The site is also proposed to have an office for use by Council Officers during office hours, and where necessary for out of hours security purposes.

Consultation event
Framptons is hosting a public consultation event on WEDNESDAY 16 JULY 2025 at which you can view and comment on initial proposals for the temporary accommodation scheme. The event will take place:

BETWEEN 3.30PM-8PM

AT NORTHAMPTON TOWN FOOTBALL CLUB,

1897 SUITE, SIXFIELDS STADIUM, UPTON WAY,

NORTHAMPTON, NN5 5QA

If you are unable to attend the event, the consultation material and plans will be available to view on our website from 16 July 2025, where you will also be able to submit comments via a consultation questionnaire.

It is the intention of WNC that the planning application will be submitted later this year (2025).  In preparing the planning application, we will have regard to the comments expressed by members of the public.

At appropriate stages of the project, updates will be available via the consultation page.
