Rushden Gateway

Welcome to the consultation website for Rushden Gateway – a proposal which will create new jobs, retail and business space for Rushden.

Ashfield Land is bringing forward plans for a new high-quality and sustainable employment-led development on land east of the A45/Northampton Road roundabout at the western approach to Rushden.

Our proposals include a new Aldi supermarket alongside modern retail and business space, as well as an Electric Vehicle (EV) charging facility and a drive-thru coffee / food offering. This is all set within a sustainable and attractively landscaped development.

Ahead of submitting a planning application for the redevelopment of the site, we held a public consultation. We invited feedback from the local community from 5 to 26 November 2024.

Thank you to everyone who provided feedback. All comments submitted during the consultation were considered and responded to as part of the ‘Statement of Local Engagement’, which was included as part of the planning application.

We submitted the planning application to North Northamptonshire Council in December 2024 and it was validated in mid-January 2025. The application documents can be viewed on the NNC planning portal, using application reference NE/24/01201/OUT.
