Welcome & Introduction
Thank you for taking time to look at this public consultation website. Please take your time to look through the proposals. We value local knowledge and welcome your input.
Richborough and Manor Oak Homes are consulting with members of the local community on proposals for a new residential development on land off Risborough Road & Wendover Road, Stoke Mandeville. The proposals, which are still evolving, are currently for a residential development of up to 650 dwellings including a mix of market and affordable homes, together with a country park (SANG), village hall/communal workspace, multi-functional open space-functional open space, community orchard, community allotments, locally equipped areas of play, multi-use games areas, SuD’s features, landscaping, a mobility hub with provision for EV charging, secure parking and bike/scooter hire, enhanced pedestrian connections and associated infrastructure including a new pedestrian footbridge across the railway line. It is anticipated that 25% of homes will be provided as affordable housing which exceeds the current local planning policy requirement.
A feedback section is provided on the ‘Your Views’ page which allows comments to be entered and returned to Richborough and Manor Oak Homes. We welcome any comments that you may have, including what you might want to see on the Site, which will be taken into consideration as the proposals are developed. Following submission of an outline planning application, the application will be subject to a further period of statutory consultation by Buckinghamshire Council. At that stage, you will have the opportunity to submit your formal comments on the application to the Council before a decision is made.
