PLANS have been submitted for 89 new homes at Bordon Hill Farm in Stratford.
The planning application for the 22-acre site has been submitted to Stratford District Council by Bellway.
It includes a range of one, two, three and four-bedroom homes, with 58 homes for private sale and 31 affordable properties for low-cost rent or shared ownership. Access to the development would be off Evesham Road.
Alongside the homes would be 15 acres of new publicly accessible open space, with a children’s play area within a community green, a traditional orchard and a hillside park providing elevated views across Stratford.
Marie Richards, sales director for Bellway West Midlands, said: “Our proposals for the land at Bordon Hill Farm would deliver a wide range of benefits for the local community in Stratford, most importantly the provision of much-needed new housing, including affordable homes.
“The project would also open up new public open space which covers more than two-thirds of the site, reinstating historic field boundaries and providing footpaths and seating. This would give people the opportunity to stop and enjoy views across the town.
“Our plans would considerably exceed the requirement to improve biodiversity by 10 per cent. Enhancements would be delivered through the planting of species-rich meadow grassland and new trees.
“And we have carefully designed the new homes to complement those in the surrounding area, through the use of red brick, white render and grey or red roof tiles.
“We have worked closely with the local authority to design these proposals and also consulted with the local community on our plans. We hope to move forward with the project later this year, subject to planning consent.”
