Land at Wrottesley Park Road, Perton, Wolverhampton

Welcome to this Virtual Public Consultation website, relating to the proposed development of up to 700 new, high-quality homes, open spaces and associated infrastructure at Wrottesley Park Road, Perton. The site is located to the west of Wolverhampton, to the southern edge of Perton and covers approximately 29.8 hectares.

The purpose of this consultation is to keep local people informed and to gather feedback on the emerging design and layout of the proposed development.

All comments will be carefully considered and may result in changes to the proposals. Once the application is submitted, there will be a formal consultation conducted by South Staffordshire Council where you will be able to make further comments if you wish.

Background

The developer, Barberry (Perton) Ltd now wish to bring forward this development and welcome your views before submitting an Outline application.

The Proposed Development

The new homes would be accessed via two access points off Wrottesley Park Road, with a separate emergency access onto Pattingham Road, a pedestrian/cycle connection into the Public Open Space at Edgehill Drive that will link through the development onto Pattingham Road. The proposals include several substantial areas of public open space throughout the site. The proposed masterplan on this webpage shows the indicative aspirations for the development.

The proposed development would include up to 350 new affordable homes and the development will include a variety of dwelling sizes (including 1, 2, 3, 4+ bed homes). The homes would comprise a mixture of private market housing with a proportion of affordable homes in a tenure mix of social/affordable rent, shared ownership & first homes. There will be significant areas of new landscaping which will complement the character of the area and provide a boost to local biodiversity through the creation of new habitats and wildlife corridors.

The vision is to deliver a landscape led, high quality development that follows the principles of good placemaking. The proposed development will provide generous public open space for informal recreation and enjoyment by the local community, with high visual amenity and enhanced biodiversity.
