Lostock Hall Farm, Poynton
“Our vision for Lostock Hall Farm is to sustainably support the growth of Poynton.
The Site is well located to utilise existing public transport services, including Poynton Railway Station and Poynton’s regular bus service. The Site will also be designed to accommodate bus services through the neighbourhood.
A new walking trail will be created around the edges of the Site, providing improved access to the countryside with connections onto the upgraded Public Right of Way network.
The Site will include a children’s play area and areas of beautiful biodiverse habitats including meadow grassland, trees and hedgerows.
The Site will include a variety of different houses to make sure there’s homes for everyone – whatever stage of the housing ladder you’re on.
The development will be designed to reflect the local Poynton’s unique architectural character including using similar materials to existing buildings.”
