Plans for new homes and community facilities in Tangmere approved

Acting on behalf of Countryside, Turley has secured approval on outline plans to bring forward up to 1,300 new homes, 30% being affordable, with a primary school and a number of exciting new community and commercial facilities at Tangmere.

We provided Planning, Strategic Communications, EIA, Economics and Sustainability services for the scheme which will also create significant areas of public open space that make up around half of the site, including allotments and a community orchard.

Countryside was appointed by Chichester District Council to work with them and Tangmere Parish Council to bring forward the strategic site. The landscape-led plans were shaped through two years of ongoing engagement with the local community and stakeholders to build on the identity of Tangmere and integrate with the existing community to create one connected village.

The Outline Planning application was progressed alongside a Compulsory Purchase Order (CPO) process, and a decision on this is expected by the Secretary of State later this year. Following this, it is anticipated that Countryside will submit the initial Reserved Matters applications in early 2022 with construction commencing later that year.
