A planning application for Phases 5a and 5c was submitted in July 2024, proposing 114 dwellings, with a range of 1 to 5 bedroom units (30% will be affordable housing). Proposals have undergone extensive workshops with West Suffolk Council Planning Officers, Suffolk County Council Highways and the Local Lead Flood Authority. The Haverhill Town council have been consulted throughout the design process.

As shown by the CGI’s below, the scheme incorporates a traditional design stemming from the local vernacular of Haverhill through the use of red and buff brick, occasional use of render and a variety of brick detailing around windows.
