New housing estate plan for farm land in Clayton-le-Woods near Cuerden Valley Park
Plans have been tabled for a new development of 29 homes near Chorley.
An estate of ‘high quality, high specification homes’, is being planned for farm land in Clayton-le-Woods, near Chorley.
Wain Homes have made an application for 29 dwellings together with associated infrastructure on land off Wigan Road, Clayton-Le-Woods, part of the wider Cuerden Farm site.
The application site is approximately 3.43 acres, located close to the M6 motorway, Cuerden Valley Park, west of a live Wain Homes North West site, and south of Campbells Park Homes.
The scheme proposes 29 units consisting of nine affordable and 20 full market dwellings which range from two to five bedrooms. A Design and Access statement says: “The layout contains units that will be up to two storeys and have been designed with the ethos of an modern version of traditional rural architecture similar to that already in the area”.
Red brick will be used, with grey roofs planned.
Access
The main access will be served off phase 1, through the removal of an approved unit, and there will be two other access points served off Wigan Road for limited homes.
A new footpath is also proposed in the southern public green space to connect onto the existing path/track to the south of the site, providing access to the wider area.
Landscaping
Wain Homes said: “New landscaping will be proposed where possible. This will aim to create a mature setting and help blend the new development into the surrounding context.”
A decision will be made in coming weeks by Chorley Borough Council.
