The Proposals

The proposals include:

  • Circa 100 new homes including a mix of two, three and four bedroom homes designed for first time buyers, young couples, families, downsizers and older residents
  • 35% would be affordable homes, helping address local housing need and supporting people who are currently struggling to access suitable homes within the area
  • Public open space including the retention of the existing pond and new planting throughout
  • New landscaping, tree planting and biodiversity enhancements to help create an attractive environment for future residents and the wider community
  • Homes would be built to modern environmental standards, incorporating sustainable, low-carbon technologies such as electric vehicle charging points, air source heat pumps and solar panels
  • A drainage strategy will be developed to attenuate surface water and restrict its release to ensure the development does not increase flood risk elsewhere
  • Generating investment towards local infrastructure and services through developer contributions from Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) payments
  • Biodiversity improvements delivering at least 10% biodiversity net gain
