800-home residential scheme takes a step closer
An 800-home residential scheme in Derby has taken a step closer after Clowes Developments sold its share of the land holding to national housebuilder Bellway.
Snelsmoor Grange in Chellaston – a joint venture between the two developers – received planning approval from Derby City Council chiefs in March 2022. Alongside the new homes, the scheme will include a village park, various social amenities and a new primary school.
The development will form part of Boulton Moor, a larger settlement on the outskirts of Chellaston.
Clowes Developments director Thomas Clowes said: “We are delighted to finally see this scheme coming to fruition. The relationship between Clowes and Bellway spans many years, collaborating on a number of projects up and down the UK. Snelsmoor Grange has presented a unique opportunity to work together and deliver another exciting development.”
Paul Coleman, managing director of Bellway East Midlands, said: “Derby City Council’s resolution to grant planning permission for this new residential development in Chellaston is very pleasing for everyone who has worked incredibly hard to put forward the proposed scheme. We have worked very closely with Clowes to secure this agreement, building on our longstanding relationship with the team there.”
He added: “Bellway is looking forward to delivering the new Snelsmoor Grange development and will announce further details on the project once construction work begins on site in the near future.”
