Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 29 Oct, 06:16 · Archive
Plans for 52 homes have been submitted for land north of Cholmondeley Road in Wrenbury, part of which lies within the village conservation area.
Wain Homes has submitted plans for 52 homes on a 4.34-hectare parcel of land north of Cholmondeley Road in Wrenbury, Cheshire. Part of the site lies within the village conservation area. The proposal includes a mix of maisonettes, mews, semi-detached and detached houses.
The development would provide 30 per cent affordable housing and approximately 1.32 hectares of public open space. Vehicular, pedestrian and cycle access would be from Cholmondeley Road along the southern boundary. The applicant's design statement describes the layout as presenting a 'sensitive and respectful approach to the conservation area and heritage character of the location', with appropriate distance from listed buildings including St Margarets Church, Churchside Cottage and Wrenbury Church Bridge.
Emery Planning, the planning consultant, estimates the development would support 181 jobs during and after construction. The planning statement notes that Cheshire East Council is 'unable to demonstrate a five-year housing land supply by a considerable margin', with the council able to show supply of only 3.3 years on its own figures.
