Approved by Bromsgrove District and Redditch Borough Councils, the new homes will make up the fifth phase of the wider scheme.

A total of 99 homes will be transferred to a housing association partner for rent and shared ownership.

As part of Persimmon and Charles Church’s wider development at Redditch, over £7.23m is being paid to support infrastructure delivery and the local economy.
