Richborough has overall land control of 80 acres on the eastern edge of Danbury.
A Resolution to Grant was was secured at planning committee in November 2025 for 16 acres at 72 homes.
Key features of the scheme include:
- Generous public open spaces, including areas for children’s play and a new community orchard planted with native fruit trees;
- Strengthened connectivity through enhanced pedestrian and cycle routes both within the scheme and linking to the wider village
- and significant biodiversity benefits, with native tree and wildflower planting complementing the protection of established oak trees that define the local landscape.
The remainder of the land is being promoted through the emerging Danbury Neighbourhood Plan.
