A series of new planning applications has been lodged with Forest of Dean District Council, including proposals affecting conservation areas and listed buildings.

The notice, published this week, confirms three developments now open for public comment.

At 1 Church Road, Newnham, plans have been submitted for a single‑storey rear extension, replacing an existing structure.

In Aylburton, an application seeks permission to build a pair of semi‑detached homes with parking and access on land north‑west of the George Inn.

A third proposal, in Ruardean, requests a change of use at Pyke Cottage to a short‑term holiday let, including installation of an outdoor hot tub.

Residents can inspect the applications online or at the council offices in Coleford. Written representations must be submitted by Thursday, September 23.

The council states that all comments will be published on its website.
