About
Part of the Homes England Garden Communities Programme since 2019 Meecebrook provides a unique opportunity to maximise the economic growth potential created by HS2 investment.
Background
The funding made available through the Garden Communities Programme has kickstarted a significant investment in technical studies to understand just what, when and how Meecebrook could deliver infrastructure led housing and employment growth within Stafford Borough.
The opportunity
HS2 has opened up the potential to create a major new garden settlement with future housing development, new employment land and new infrastructure at a site North West of Stone. The land around Cold Meece in Staffordshire could see thousands of new homes built alongside new schools, health facilities, parks, and business parks with a focus on innovation and responsive to climate change.
The stats:
- Location: Stafford
- Programme: 2021 onwards
- Planning status: To be considered through the local plan process
- Plans for significant new homes, healthcare provision and community facilities
- £1.1m Government funding already secured for technical studies and masterplanning Meecebrook is one of only 28 sites within the Government’s Garden Communities programme
