Our Proposals 

Charles Church is proposing a development of up to 125 new homes on the land at Farleigh Fields West. 

The draft framework plan (shown below) is a sensitive response to the site and its surroundings and shows a significant reduction in the amount of development previously proposed on the site. The proposals are limited to the north-east of the site and sit within the lower slopes. Vehicular access is to be from a new junction with Dark Lane.

The established vegetation along the site’s boundaries is to be retained and enhanced and ecological buffer areas will be incorporated to attract more biodiversity. The proposals also include attractive new green space and pedestrian links to the wider footpath network and nearby services and facilities.

It is important that the character of the Farleigh Fields West development responds appropriately to its context and to other relevant design influences. As such, the below Opportunities & Constraints plan has been produced to inform the production of a masterplan.
