Work to build 299 new homes on a site has begun after being earmarked for almost six decades.
Outline planning permission was granted for the site in early 2022. Picture: Atkins Global for Telford and Wrekin CouncilThe 105-acre site lies close to Stirchley Interchange near Halesfield, and has been zoned for housing since the ‘New Town Masterplan’ was drawn up in 1965.
The site, which includes a former riding school, will be converted into 299 two-, three-, and four-bedroom homes. 72 homes will be available through the housing association Bromford, including 59 affordable rent homes and 16 homes for shared ownership. Countryside managing director, Phil McHugh, said: “It is great to start work on building what promises to be an exceptional community for Telford. With over £2.5million of investment in local services, we will ensure that there are ample facilities for both new and current residents.
Rebecca North, regional development manager for Bromford added: “We’re thrilled to be working with Countryside Partnerships once again on this latest development which will provide 75 quality, new affordable homes in Telford.
