Redevelopment of former Greyhound Stadium approved by Cheshire West
Euan Kellie Property Solutions has successfully secured planning permission on behalf of Linden Homes North West for 141 new homes in Ellesmere Port on land currently occupied by the vacant former Greyhound Stadium in Ellesmere Port.
The proposals include 96 open market dwellings and 45 affordable dwellings (30% of the total provision), with a mix of one bedroom flats and two, three and four bedroom houses at two to three storeys in height. The scheme also includes on-site open space and new access points will be provided to the development off Thornton Road.
As part of the negotiations that took place with Sport England during determination of the application – due to the loss of a former playing pitch on the Stadium site – it was agreed Linden Homes would make a financial contribution that will lead to the provision of a replacement playing pitch on land to the south at Stanney Grange.
Euan Kellie, Director of Euan Kellie Property Solutions said:
“We are delighted the Council has unanimously supported our client’s proposals. The scheme has been subject to detailed discussions over the past six months and granting planning permission will enable our client to deliver a very important residential development in a very important part of Cheshire West.”
The scheme was designed by BM3 Architecture Ltd.
