Developer wants to double number of homes planned for former barracks
Developers want to double the amount of houses set to be built on an abandoned army barracks.
Applicants H&S Construction (SOT) Limited is hoping to secure planning permission for 75 homes on the former military training camp in Stoke Heath, which bosses say will be a “more efficient” use of the land than a previously approved scheme.
Outline planning permission was granted for 38 houses nearly two years ago, with the developer saying it intended to build “high-quality, executive standard” accommodation at the Warrant Road site, with provision for affordable homes as part of the development.
A detailed scheme for 40 homes was subsequently approved.
Now, a fresh outline application has been lodged, which will see more semi-detached dwellings incorporated into the plans to increase the number of homes built once more.
