What fuels heat homes in Moreton?

In the 2021 Census, 1,918 of the 2,711 households in Moreton East and Moreton West wards used mains gas alone. That is 70.7 per cent.

Oil heated 169 households, or 6.2 per cent, about twice the England share. Moreton East had the most, at 7.5 per cent.

Moreton East also had 30 households with renewable heating alone, such as a heat pump. That is 2.0 per cent, five times the England share.

How old are homes in the Moreton area?

The Moreton and Stow area has many new homes. Almost a third (31.9 per cent) of homes on the Council Tax list were built in 2000 or later. About a fifth date from before 1919.

A new house often suits a heat pump with little change. A stone house on the High Street may need extra insulation and larger radiators first.

Ask for the heat loss figure in watts for each room. This lets you compare quotes from different engineers.

Does the grant pay more for oil-heated homes?

Yes. GOV.UK says the Boiler Upgrade Scheme pays £7,500 towards an air or ground source heat pump. Until March 2027, a home with oil or LPG and no mains gas can get £1,500 more.

A biomass boiler can get £5,000, but only in a rural home off the gas grid, with an emissions certificate.

The installer applies to Ofgem for you, and must fit the system within 120 days of the application.

Which planning rules apply in the centre of Moreton?

The centre of Moreton is a conservation area, and many buildings on the High Street are listed. Cotswold District Council publishes the boundary map.

In the conservation area, a new flue on a road-facing front or side wall needs planning permission. A listed house also needs permission for an oil tank in its grounds, and for any heat pump.

Electric heating is common in Moreton West ward. There, 162 households (13.2 per cent) used it alone in 2021. Another 22 households in the two wards used tank or bottled gas.

Questions

Can I put a heat pump at the front of my Moreton house?

Moreton is inside the Cotswolds National Landscape. There, a unit on a road-facing wall or roof, or nearer the road than the house, needs planning permission.

Where can Moreton residents get free energy advice?

Warm and Well gives free advice to Cotswold District residents. Call 0800 500 3076, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.

Do I need permission for a new oil tank?

Usually not, if it holds 3,500 litres or less and is not in front of the house. In the National Landscape, it must not sit between a side wall and the boundary.
