“Pre-application discussions will be under way soon once we have sufficient amount of supporting documentation to inform those discussions.”

It lies between the 160-home Butterfield Meadow estate, completed in 2017 and Lavender Chase, where the construction of 60 homes, 60 apartments with care and 39 care-ready bungalows is still under way off nearby Lynn Road.
