Plans submitted for 125-home development at former Raleigh site, Nottinghamshire

Multiple sources report that Homes by Honey has submitted detailed plans for a 125-home development on the former Raleigh bike company headquarters site in Eastwood, Nottinghamshire. The project, named Raleigh, includes 113 open market homes and 12 affordable homes, with a mix of two- to five-bedroom properties and is backed by more than £1 million in contributions towards local education, healthcare, and bus services. The development will feature new green spaces and improved road and pedestrian access, with designs intended to integrate with surrounding neighborhoods and respect nearby historic properties. The site, which Raleigh vacated in 2024, was previously described by the company as outdated and underused following the cessation of manufacturing operations over two decades ago. Planning documents highlight the removal of asbestos and the creation of safe walking and cycling routes as key components. The final decision on the project will be made by Broxtowe Borough Council.
