How the South West's land is changing in a week: new homes, a court order, a showground sale and a coastal completion
Somerset Council both approved housing and backed an injunction against unlawful housing this week, while a North Somerset showground changed hands and a Cornish developer finished a Bude scheme.
Somerset County Gazette reported that Maple Wood Partnership secured outline consent from Somerset Council for up to 40 new homes on Maple Road in Curry Rivel [1]. Somerset Council said it welcomed a High Court final injunction over unauthorised residential occupation and development at Oxen Lane, North Curry, in a case that involved planning, enforcement action and legal proceedings [3]. North Somerset Times reported that the North Somerset Show will leave Wraxall after Bathing Pond Fields was sold to Belmont Estate [2]. Bdaily South West reported that Newquay-based Legacy Properties completed Upton Green, a 25-home coastal development on the edge of Bude, with three properties remaining for sale [4].
