What is the NDP
A vibrant village and gateway to the historic Forest of Dean, Mitcheldean offers both a residential and working community. The current Vantage Point Business Village (the former Xerox plant and Wintles Brewery) is at the heart of the village which is set amid rolling green hills that disguise the business park with the historic brewery mew buildings at the heart of the village.
A Neighbourhood Development Plan (NDP) consists of documents – produced by the community for their community – containing maps, lists and policies. They form a vision for the future of the area produced by the local community for the community. The Localism Act and Neighbourhood Planning Regulations mean that communities have the right to undertake NDPs and they will be used to help to shape the future of the area
