Salboy lodges plans for Worsley housing scheme
A five-acre site off Leigh Road east of Boothstown is earmarked for 26 three- and four-bedroom homes.
Salboy, which is also behind plans for the 76-storey mixed-use Viadux phase two in Manchester city centre, has submitted plans for the Worsley housing project having consulted on the scheme last year.
The majority of respondents to the consultation opposed the proposals, according to a summary of the feedback prepared by Counter Context.
Designed by Studio Power, the project comprises a mix of detached and semi-detached homes on a five-acre site allocated for redevelopment in the Places for Everyone joint plan. It forms part of a wider allocation that includes developer Peel’s plans for 295 homes.
Salboy’s plot incorporates the Alderwood bungalow on Leigh Road as well as the Booths Bank Farm site to the south. It is located close to RHS Garden Bridgewater.
Salboy’s plans include demolishing the derelict farm buildings on the site and constructing 26 homes ranging from 1,636 sq ft to 3,358 sq ft with front and year gardens and space for two cars each.
