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.
At Brookbanks, we go beyond traditional mechanical and electrical (M&E) design. Our mission is to ensure that every system we create works seamlessly within the broader context of a project- whether it's a residential development, a commercial building, or a complex infrastructure scheme.
On 12 June 2025, the UK Government confirmed no new funding will be made available under the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS). Existing projects awarded funding under Phase 3c and Phase 4 will continue to be supported until completion in March 2027 and March 2028 respectively.
The 11th June 2025 Spending Review marked a profound shift in the government’s approach to housing, planning, and infrastructure — placing long-term affordability, delivery certainty, and strategic investment at the centre of economic policy.
