The Wyre Local Plan 2011 – 2031 allocates land east and south of Forton for the Forton Extension: a mixed use
development of at least 310 dwellings, 1ha of employment land and a neighbourhood centre.
Hollins Strategic Land has secured land north and south of School Lane, which forms part of the Forton Extension. We have submitted an application for outline permission for up to 195 dwellings, 1ha of employment land and a neighbourhood centre.
The Forton Extension Masterplan is a development framework designed to deliver some 310 houses, employment uses, a neighbourhood centre and extension to the existing primary school.
The Masterplan is designed to include substantial areas of green infrastructure as part of future development proposals.
Public consultation on a draft Masterplan was undertaken between 16 December 2019 and 20 January 2020.
The Masterplan, which has been produced by Hollins Strategic Land, has now been approved by Wyre Council as a framework to guide the development of land allocated at Forton.
