Government sets out support plans for Garden Villages

Berkeley Homes (St Edward) launches consultation site for new development at Hartland Village, aka Pyestock and Hartland Park

The Government has updated its policies on locally led garden villages, towns and cities. The update places particular focus on new garden villages ranging in size from 1,500 to 10,000 dwellings. The new guidance on how to apply for support for new garden villages can be found here.

Of course this is applicable to the proposed redevelopment of Pyestock into Hartland Village.

We must hope that Hart Council and Berkeley Homes will submit an Expression of Interest in Government support by the deadline of 31 July 2016.

  1. I would say right now our ‘government’ should be looking at other things rather than overcrowded new build estates with a few trees. The only positive I have seen out of brexit is barratt homes losing a huge chunk of their share value. I’m sure this isn’t good for the economy but I can’t help smiling as I view them as all that is wrong with modern homes and our approach to planning.
