Galliford Try tries again in Crewe

Gladman’s proposals for 98 homes on a plot near Congleton are set to be knocked back by Cheshire East Council, the second of the land promoter’s schemes to be recommended for refusal in the past month.

The company’s housebuilding arm has put forward three separate planning applicationS for a trio of sites, two in Ellesmere Port and another in Winsford, that will deliver a total of 189 homes across Cheshire.

Redrow’s proposals for 190 homes have been struck a blow with Cheshire East’s planning committee unanimously voting to defer the scheme claiming it could make Knutsford look like “Anywheresville”.

MCI Developments, part of Keepmoat Homes, has submitted a planning application to deliver 187 homes on Meadow Lane in Ellesmere Port.

Gladman Developments has withdrawn plans for 150 homes on the edge of Congleton, just as the project appeared on a planning agenda with a recommendation to refuse.

A public consultation has begun on the second part of the council’s Local Plan, which includes site allocations for more employment land in Crewe and housing development on Poynton Sports Club.

Local residents have vowed to continue to fight proposals to build 157 homes outside Macclesfield as housebuilder Bellway advances two planning applications for the site.

Anwyl Homes has received planning consent and is starting construction on three residential developments which will total 474 homes in Cheshire and North Wales.

The second part of the council’s Local Plan has set out further site allocations including more employment land in Crewe and housing development on Poynton Sports Club.
