Land at Quarry Farm
Quarry Farm will create a community of up to 650 homes, publicly accessible park for leisure and wildlife, a local centre to include community facilities, and associated infrastructure as part of the Stamford North Sustainable Urban Extension.
Our outline proposals have been approved by Rutland County Council’s planning committee (Tuesday 14 January 2025).
Quarry Farm forms a key part of the Stamford North Sustainable Urban Extension, which will create 2,000 new homes across two sites – Quarry Farm (Rutland County Council) and Stamford North (South Kesteven District Council). Both sites have been allocated in the South Kesteven District Council Local Plan and Rutland County Council Draft Local Plan, helping to meeting local housing needs, delivered in phases over the next 10-15 years.
Quarry Farm will deliver up to 650 much-needed new one to five-bedroom sustainable and energy efficient homes, including 30% affordable homes. It will also deliver a variety of economic, social, and environment benefits, including:
• An 84-acre publicly accessible country park, securing the future for wildlife and local people
• At least £7million in Community Infrastructure Levy contributions to improve local infrastructure needs and amenities
• A new link road through Stamford North, alleviating traffic from the centre of Stamford
• A 3,000sqm local centre for a range of facilities, which could include shops, cafes, community spaces or medical facilities
• A Biodiversity Net Gain of at least 10%
Our outline proposals for development of up to 650 new homes on land at Quarry Farm, Stamford have been approved by Rutland County Council’s planning committee (Tuesday 14 January 2025).
Now resolution to grant Outline Planning Permission has been received, it is hoped that the first Reserved Matters application will be submitted later this year (2025), and that can begin on site by early 2026.
