We are delighted to announce that the Kingsdown development at Swindon secured a resolution to permit at planning committee last night.
The project will deliver:
Working closely with the Local Authority and consultees, the application has gone through various iterations to ensure the proposals are well designed, providing a distinctive, attractive and accessible place. All new homes at Kingsdown will be zero-carbon ready, powered by air source heat pumps, have solar panels and come with electric vehicle charging points.
For Brookbanks, the planning application was managed by our Paul Boileau on behalf of Persimmon Homes and Primegate Properties.
We’re looking forward to moving the project into delivery.
In our latest podcast episode, we dive into the critical role of small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) developers in meeting the UK Government’s ambitious target of delivering 1.5 million homes by the end of this Parliament term.
Section 106 (S106) agreements play a vital role in shaping sustainable communities by ensuring that developments contribute to essential infrastructure and services. However, recent research highlights a growing challenge: billions of pounds in developer contributions remain unspent by local authorities. At Brookbanks, we believe understanding the purpose of these agreements, and how to recover unspent funds, is critical for developers and stakeholders alike.
At Brookbanks, we know that time and budget are often the defining factors in any project. That’s why we focus on delivering timely, value-driven outcomes through smarter design strategies.
