229 homes planned for site next to one of UK’s largest regeneration projects

Homebuilder, Vistry, has lodged plans for over 200 homes on Waggons Way, Stainforth, in Doncaster.

It is proposing to deliver a total of 229 homes, with access to open green spaces a key part of the scheme.

If approved, its development would be next to the 600-acre mixed use Unity site and part of the former Hatfield Colliery.

Rob Spittles, manager director of Vistry East Yorkshire, said: “We are pleased to submit proposals for much-needed new homes off Waggons Way.

“This site is a perfect location on the doorstep of the Unity site which is one of the largest regeneration schemes in the UK and offers a great level of community facilities and connectivity.

“We’ve been encouraged by local feedback including from our drop-in event and from meeting with Stainforth Town Council.

“We look forward to further discussions with Doncaster Council and others as we bring forward this contribution to the Stainforth regeneration proposals.”

A planning decision on Vistry’s proposals could be made by Doncaster Council later in 2025.
