Status: Outline Planning Consent
Keep Architecture received planning consent for 915 new homes in 2017 for this sensitive and important site in North Taunton. By working with the land promoter, landowners (including the National Trust) and the local authority, a ‘Framework Plan and Development Brief Document’ was produced and endorsed by Taunton Deane Borough Council.
Successful public consultations, place branding and stakeholder engagement was undertaken to help achieve a masterplan that addressed multiple site constraints.
The content of the outline planning consent includes 915 houses and apartments, a primary school, a local centre, employment uses and an expansive green infrastructure strategy.
