Revised master plan for proposed development east of Inglestone Road
The pre-application public consultation on the proposed development east of Inglestone Road Wickwar has now closed and the developers, Crest Nicholson, have revised their master plan for the site. The revised plan, which includes a reduction in the number of houses to 130, can be viewed on their website Crest Nicholson / TFA – Inglestone Rd, Wickwar (inglestoneroadwickwar.co.uk)
The developers have also published a summary of the discussion from the first public meeting which took place on 20th January 2021. This is in the form of a new FAQ section at the end of the website. Crest Nicholson / TFA – Inglestone Rd, Wickwar (inglestoneroadwickwar.co.uk)
Please note that an outline planning application for the proposed development has not yet been submitted to South Gloucestershire Council. It is expected that this will be submitted later in February. Members of the public and the Parish Council will be invited to submit their formal comments to South Gloucestershire Council at that point.
