Redrow tests ground for 220 Wistaston homes

The construction of properties between Crewe and Nantwich has taken a step forward after Cheshire East Council received an EIA scoping report from the North Wales-based housebuilder.

An application submitted on Redrow’s behalf by SatPlan Planning and Development indicates the development of 31 acres of land into a 220-home residential scheme with public open space.

The site, which early studies suggest has “limited ecological value”, would be accessed from Crewe Road.

According to SatPlan’s application, there is “no justification” to warrant an EIA with regards to ecology or arboriculture.

A letter put to Cheshire East Council states that the development “is considered to represent a logical extension” to the nearby town of Wistaston.

Redrow Homes has recently seen its 237-home plan in Grappenhall to the southeast of Warrington receive officer’s backing.

To view the EIA report, use the planning reference number 25/0773/EIA in Cheshire East Council’s planning portal.
