Above is the Green Belt north of the M25 with St Albans in the distance. Hertsmere Borough Council proposes to build a new 5,000-home township, Bowmans Cross, on much of this land. It’s just one of many developments close to Barnet in Hertsmere’s draft Local Plan for 2026-41. You have until 17th November to submit your views on the planning application for Bowmans Cross, and until the 19th on the Local Plan.
