planning applications

Our successful planning applications

We are proud to have secured planning approval for several projects that will help ensure Wainwright remains fit for purpose in the years ahead. These successful applications support the long-term future of our operations, safeguard local employment, and contribute to a more sustainable business.

We recognise the importance of operating responsibly within the communities around us, and we are committed to ensuring all future development are delivered with careful consideration for the local community, environment, and the wider area.

Stoke Quarry Extension

Planning permission has been granted to extend Stoke Quarry within our Moons Hill Complex, ensuring the continued supply of high-quality aggregate on which our success is built. This approval safeguards our operations into the future, protects local jobs, and supports the wider local economy.

Moons Hill Solar

Planning permission has also been granted for the installation of 1.9MW of ground-mounted solar panels in a field to the South of Moons Hill Quarry. This project will help decarbonise our operations, improve energy self-sufficiency, and support our 2040 Net Zero target.
