Hannick Homes Update

Hannick Homes have planning permission to build 24 properties along St George’s Road.  News comes that this permission is being sold to Newland Homes, a Gloucester-based house builder.

The Newland website says:

“New homes will be zero carbon and amongst the first in the country to achieve this exceptionally high level of sustainability which far exceed current planning requirements and building regulations for energy efficiency and sustainability.  Homes across the development which will be truly sustainable, a core principle for all of our developments with homes benefiting from renewable heating sources with air source heat pumps for all houses.  Homes have been orientated to benefit from solar PV and designed with high levels of insulation that far exceed current building regulations.”

It’s not clear whether all this will apply to each of the 24 properties, but there will be a chance to find out on April 14th when representatives plan to be at the parish council meeting (1930 to 2130 by zoom).
