Housing vision for Manchester probation centre
Britannia Group wants to build 67 homes on the site of Victoria Park Probation Centre off Laindon Road in Longsight.
The proposals, which are the subject of a public consultation, feature 33 apartments and 34 houses.
A total of 11 of the homes would be affordable, in line with Manchester City Council’s 20% affordable housing.
Located on the corner of Laindon Road and Daisy Bank Road, the site is currently occupied by a probation centre.
The existing buildings on the site would be demolished to make way for the development.
A planning application is due to be submitted this autumn. Work could start on the Ollier Smurthwaite-designed scheme in spring 2023, subject to planning approval.
Avison Young is the planning consultant for the project.
Elsewhere, Britannia Group won approval in 2020 to redevelop the Tatton Arms pub in Northenden into 28 apartments.
