Barratt & Peel plan housing scheme near Liverpool Airport
BARRATT Homes (Manchester) and Peel Holdings have submitted a joint application to build an estate of 268 houses on the approach road to Liverpool John Lennon Airport.
It includes new access roads and pedestrian links from Speke Hall Avenue and Cartswright Farm road to the site, as well as new parking and public spaces.
The application, prepared by consultancy GL Hearn, is for a range of 2, 3 and 4-bed family homes on a 7.8 hectare site to the north of Liverpool John Lennon Airport. The greenfield site is next to existing housing, as well as being close to a new garden centre and a retail/leisure scheme also planned by Peel.
It states there is a significant requirement of housing in Liverpool, and that there are “clear benefits” to the scheme.
“The proposed development will contribute towards on-going regeneration in this part of Speke and will further assist the council to improve the area by providing high quality family housing and important useable open space,” it said.
