Following feasibility work undertaken during late 2021 and early 2022, we made application to round 2 of the UK Government’s Levelling Up Fund for support to help us prepare land for development.
In January 2023, unfortunately the UK Government confirmed that our application was not successful. As a result we are unable to progress with the project at this time.
Our thanks again to those who were able to attend the pre-planning application consultation events in October 2022, and to those who gave feedback at the sessions or by email.

If you were unable to attend the events, you can still see our exhibition boards:
