Plans to expand housing at the Thoresby Vale development in Edwinstowe have been approved, allowing for the construction of up to 190 additional homes.
The scheme, led by Harworth Group and Mines Property Ltd, forms part of the ongoing redevelopment of the former Thoresby Colliery site, which closed in 2015. The wider regeneration project received initial outline consent in 2016 and full approval in 2019 for 800 homes, a primary school, leisure areas, and commercial facilities.
The latest application was brought before Newark and Sherwood District Council’s Planning Committee to increase the total number of residential units permitted within the site. A report presented to the committee stated that the additional housing would not significantly alter the character of the area beyond what has already been approved.
The committee granted outline approval, subject to conditions, paving the way for further development within one of Nottinghamshire’s key brownfield regeneration sites.
