A planning application for five self-build homes on green fields in Oakham has been refused for the second time in three months. Last week (June 17) a planning officer from Rutland County Council denied the application by Exeter Court 1 Ltd for the self build plots on land to the south of Braunston Road and close to Noel Avenue.
