Sheffield-based Hallam Land has sold 365 residential plots – 75 in Ambrosden, Oxfordshire to house builder Mulberry Homes and 290 residential plots in Sittingbourne, Kent Taylor Wimpey, respectively.
Hallam acquired the Ambrosden site in 2014, before promoting the land through the planning process. In December 2023, an outline planning consent was secured for the homes as well as a 12-acre community woodland, local highway improvements and a children’s play area.
In 2017, Hallam agreed a promotion agreement for the Sittingbrourne site before submitting an outline application in November 2022. Hallam successfully secured planning consent on an appealed decision in July 2024, following an initial refusal in 2022. The appeal was made on the basis that Swale Borough Council’s outdated development plan could not demonstrate a five-year housing land supply which in turn was failing to meet the area’s housing needs.
