In any case, the new Labour government says that it will increase house building and simplify planning permission ... and guess what a 'brownfield site' is?

That's the major concern here in my opinion you'd certainly expect the owners to try again under any new planning guidelines that become law

I see that a new planning application has been submitted for the old nursery site directly opposite Brandon Stadium for up to 42 dwellings.                                                                                                    
Will be interesting to see if they get approval for this in the future.

That site has been empty a bit longer than the stadium site has from what I recall on visits to Brandon .

They got planning approval to construct a new garden centre in 2015 but as usual it never happened, just happy to sit on it until now.

And that is exactly what will happen with Brandon Estates, they simply are not bothered about how long it takes because they know they have an appreciating assett in the land that Brandon Stadium is built on.

I reckon it's been about 20 years, the owners retired and no one else took over, a proposed new garden centre never materialised, think there has been one previous planning application for houses until now.

Is it a matter if time (not sure how long that is) before Rugby B.C. serve a section 21 notice on Brandon Estates?
Could be a good way to get the area cleared at no cost to future promoters/owners wishing to bring the sport back. Or at least force Brandon Estates arm to consider selling given that to clear the site will be significant cost.

In what context is a section 21 notice relevant here?

My apologies. Should be a section 215 notice
