Plans Unveil Over 2,000 Homes Across Nottinghamshire, Surrey, Bristol Areas

Several new housing developments are planned across different regions in the UK and the US, reflecting ongoing efforts to address housing demand. In Nottinghamshire, Gedling Borough Council is considering sites for thousands of new homes, including the Mapperley Golf Course, as part of its new Local Plan, though no final decisions have been made yet. Surrey has two notable projects: Bewley Homes has submitted plans for 50 homes in Wood Street Village, including 50% affordable housing, while Berkeley Homes proposes up to 300 homes at the former Hersham Technology Park, including apartments and houses, with environmental impact assessments underway. In South Gloucestershire near Bristol, permission was granted for 525 homes at Pennymeads, accompanied by community facilities and infrastructure improvements, though concerns over public services remain. Meanwhile, in the US, Schell Brothers has begun construction on the Monarch neighborhood near Middletown, Delaware, planning 663 homes with extensive open spaces and a variety of home sizes aimed at diverse buyers. These developments highlight a broad push for residential growth balanced with community and environmental considerations.
