“The site – which will be known as Clover Chase – will provide 39 homes, ranging in size from one to five bedrooms.

“As part of our commitment to deliver homes that meet the needs of local people, a third of the properties will be designated as affordable housing, with one specifically designed to be wheelchair accessible.”

Persimmon will also create a pedestrian access for residents, linking Homelea Crescent to the site of a new village hall, which is being developed by the Village Hall Committee.
