PLANS to build homes on the edge of a new super village being built in Worcester have been revealed.

Lockley Homes is the developer behind the plans for nine properties on a two acre site in Broomhall Lane, on the very southern tip of the planned development area.

The Worcester News has previously reported that the new ‘super village’ for more than 2,000 homes between the St Peter’s area of Worcester and the village of Kempsey, near Norton and Whittington, got the go-ahead last year.

Joint managing director Karl Lockley said: “The entire site crosses the Malvern, Wychavon and Worcester city boundaries and will see a new urban extension to the south of Worcester with more than 2,000 homes, new schools, retail, leisure facilities and playing fields all expected to be included. The vast majority of the new housing will be the familiar mix of generic, standard properties generally produced by volume builders. However, our proposal is for a very different mix of housing in an area surrounded by existing woodland and an old stream, with great views of the Malvern Hills in the distance.”

George Pickard, senior partner of selling agents Andrew Grant, added: “This is a superb example of a thought-out and interesting development, ensuring good sized houses and bungalows, that are stylishly built and will benefit from a balanced sized garden guaranteeing interesting modern dwellings continue to be introduced into the new homes sector.”

A consultation on the proposal runs until October 11. It can be viewed at malvernhills.gov.uk, searching for 19/01264/OUT.
