After a planning sage lasting years the new estate is being built at the Horwich golf club site
A developer has started work to build 177 new homes at the former Horwich Golf Club. Contractors and digging vehicles have now moved in at the site, off Victoria Road, which will eventually contain up to 276 homes.
An application for around 300 homes was refused by Bolton Council and that decision was upheld a planning inquiry appeal in 2019. A second application was then strongly opposed by both Bolton Council, whose planning committee unanimously rejected it, and the Stocks Residents Association, which represented neighbouring householders.
The 177 homes at the site will be known as ‘Cynefin’. Of those, the developer said that 34 per cent will be affordable and made available at both affordable rent and discount market rent.
