Redrow
Church Lane, Ravenstone

Have your say on plans for 62 beautifully crafted new homes inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement at Church Lane, Ravenstone.

Award-winning homebuilder, Barratt Redrow, is preparing a full-planning application for high-quality, energy-efficient homes at Church Lane, Ravenstone. The proposals are informed by the draft allocation of the site for residential development in North West Leicestershire’s emerging new Local Plan.

The proposed development includes: 

  • 62 beautifully crafted homes from the company’s premium Redrow brand.
  • High-quality designs inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement.
  • 30% (19) of homes provided as affordable housing including shared ownership homes that would appeal to first time buyers. 
  • The creation of new areas of public open space, with landscape planting.
  • Retention of existing mature trees and the vast majority of hedgerows, bolstered by additional planting. 
  • Development set back from Church Lane to respect the setting of Ravenstone Conservation Area.
  • Existing public right of way through the site retained and enhanced along a realigned route. 
  • Financial contributions to support local services and community infrastructure. 

Community consultation

Barratt Redrow has appointed a team of professional consultants to prepare a full planning application for the development at Church Lane, informed by the site’s draft allocation in the new Local Plan.

As part of this process, this website has been created for members of the community to view the emerging plans and to provide feedback. We would like to hear the priorities and aspirations of local people and prospective residents to help shape the emerging plans before we submit a full planning application to the council.
