Horsham FC call on last-minute '˜vital' support for ground application

An artist impression of what Horsham Football Club's new home could look like

Today is the final day that comments can be made for or against the application to build a home on land near Hop Oast at Horsham Golf and Fitness, east of the A24.

The move would be funded by a new residential development on part of the land at the Holbrook Club for 58 homes.

The planning application will be heard in early March and is for a club house and two new state-of-the-art 3G pitches which will be available for use by the whole community - the club has also been clear this is its third and final attempt to acquire a new home.

A statement said: “Your comments and support really are vital if we are to embark upon a bright new future so please visit www.horsham.gov.uk/planning, insert the relevant reference number then click search.

“Fill in details with name and address, put a dot in the support box, and write a comment. Click submit. It’s THAT easy.”

Quote the reference DC/16/2856 for the ground at Hop Oast or DC16/2855 for the Holbrook application.
