We are pleased to have secured a resolution to grant outline planning permission for a development of 150 new homes on the edge of the Shropshire village of Albrighton.
The overarching vision for the site is to create an ideal setting for family living with a high-quality landscape-led development. This sustainable approach integrates new housing and green space through the retention of existing trees and creation of new habitats.
Thirty of the homes will be available through a registered provider of affordable housing.
Ryan James, Land Director at Wain Estates, said: "This site represents a well-considered and sustainable extension to Albrighton. With excellent access to the village centre’s amenities and strong commuter links, it provides an ideal location for much needed new homes.
“Throughout the planning process, we have engaged with the local community to ensure the scheme complements the existing surroundings. Our masterplan retains mature beech trees along the site boundary and connects seamlessly with neighbouring developments.
“The Shropshire Local Plan sets a high standard for design quality, and we have responded by incorporating green corridors for walking and cycling, as well as retaining two existing ponds to promote biodiversity.
“Our vision is to create a sustainable, well-designed development that meets the needs of both current and future generations, and we can’t wait to see this come to fruition."
We will now openly market the site to housing developers who will bring forward a detailed scheme.
