Plans for two new housing estates under review in Fleckney

Harborough District Council is reviewing proposals for two large-scale residential developments on the northern edge of Fleckney, which could bring 340 new homes to the village.

One application, submitted by David Wilson Homes, outlines a plan to build 170 residential units on a 7.5-hectare site currently used as farmland. The land lies off Long Grey and Garner Way. According to the submitted documentation, 40% of the homes would be designated affordable housing. The proposal also includes green space and allotments.

A separate application has been lodged for 170 homes on an adjacent field off Leicester Road. Planning officers are currently considering both developments, and decisions are expected later in the year.
