Richborough brought forward a 55-acre site north of Congleton, Cheshire East—allocated in the adopted Local Plan as part of the North Congleton Masterplan.
In 2020, we submitted a planning application for a major mixed-use scheme comprising 185 homes, 28 acres of employment land, and 1.7 acres of retail space. Outline planning permission was secured in March 2021, along with Clowes Developments as our commercial development partner.
The scheme includes the 23-acre Viking Park, an extension to the established Congleton Business Park, expected to support around 500 jobs. The masterplan also features:
- Up to 175 homes
- A neighbourhood retail centre
- Wildlife corridors and parkland
- Vehicular access via the new Congleton Link Road
The residential Phase 1 was sold to Bloor Homes, who have submitted a reserved matters application for 154 homes. Richborough is also promoting an additional 40 units.
