Plans submitted for over 100 new homes at former RAF Church Fenton base

Plans have been submitted for the development of more than 100 new homes near the former RAF Church Fenton airbase.

The application comprises 119 homes, which include two, three and four bedrooms.

Planning and design consultancy Barton Willmore has supported Bellway Homes on the proposals, which were designed by STEN Architecture.

Stuart Natkus, planning director at Barton Willmore, said: “These plans will not only deliver much-needed new homes, but also significant regeneration of a derelict brownfield site.

“Barton Willmore secured outline planning permission for this site some years ago, so it’s great to see a developer now driving forward proposals.

“Bellway’s plans are for a sustainable, attractive development with a village green feature that’s in keeping with the surrounding area.”

The proposed development will be served by a new access road from Busk Lane.
