High Lane site tipped for GMSF removal

Contractor Rowlinson is preparing to start building Amstone Developments' 96-home Stockport Road scheme, after the developer appointed housing association One Manchester to manage the properties on completion.

Plans for 393 homes as part of the redevelopment of the 187-acre Loco Works site in Horwich, Bolton, into a 1,700-home neighbourhood are to be given the go-ahead by the council.

After its proposals for a nine-storey, 197-bedroom hotel off Barton Road were refused by Trafford Council in September, the developer has tweaked the scheme, proposing a scaled-back seven-storey building with 147 bedrooms. 

Consultation on the long-awaited masterplan for the 26-acre site will not take place until next year due to delays caused by Covid-19, land owner Peel L&P said. 

The developer is seeking consent for two car parks totalling 710 spaces on land between Broadway and the Manchester Ship Canal in Salford. 

The Salford-based housebuilder and contractor has submitted plans for 274 homes across two sites connected by the Manchester, Bolton & Bury Canal in Little Lever. 

Trafford Council is seeking the public's views on proposals to build 86 homes on the site of the former court having appointed Seddon Developments to build the £18m scheme earlier this year.

Estate agent Edward Mellor is selling its town centre headquarters on St Petersgate, a site the company says could be redeveloped into a scheme comprising 250 apartments across three towers. 

Manchester-based Capital & Centric aims to lodge an application by the end of the year for its £60m redevelopment of the Stockport mill into 254 apartments, following a second round of public consultation.
