Bin stores in Market Harborough: what is involved
We fit composite and aluminium bin stores for one, two or three wheelie bins, on a level paved pad with a path to the kerb, so the bins are hidden and easy to get out on collection day.
Market Harborough has a historic core around the Square and the Old Grammar School, Victorian and Edwardian streets out to Little Bowden and Great Bowden, later estates around the edge, and the large Airfield Farm development near Lubenham.
We cover Market Harborough (LE16) and the villages around it, including Great Bowden, Little Bowden, Lubenham, Foxton, East Farndon, Kibworth, Husbands Bosworth and Medbourne.
Ground and conservation in Market Harborough
Market Harborough is on Jurassic mudstones and clays, which drain slowly, and the town sits where the River Welland meets the River Jordan. Water management decides most designs here, so we test the ground before choosing a soakaway or a permeable build-up. On the clay around Market Harborough we dig the base below the topsoil and build it thicker, so it does not move with the seasons.
The Market Harborough conservation area covers the historic town core and was designated in 1969, with separate conservation areas at Great Bowden and Lubenham. An Article 4 direction served in 2020 on land at Queen's Street, Little Bowden, covers gates, fences and walls.

Permissions in Market Harborough
- PlanningA bin store at the side or back of the house is normally permitted development. In front of the house, a free-standing store technically falls outside householder permitted development, so we check with the council before building one there. Listed buildings and the Market Harborough conservation area have tighter rules, so we check your address before anything is designed. Planning Portal: outbuildings
