Known as the ‘Tangmere Strategic Development Location Site’, Chichester District Council has issued a planning decision notice to bring forward the development of the new homes, a new primary school, and community and commercial facilities.

The scheme initially received planning permission in March 2021 before this was revisited due to subsequent amendments.

In August 2023, it secured a resolution to grant permission from the planning committee again.

Martin Leach, managing director at Vistry Strategic Land, said: "Receiving formal outline planning permission is a significant step in realising the vision for Tangmere.

“We remain committed to working closely with Tangmere Parish Council and local residents to produce a design code that will guide the next phase of this transformative development."

The project will now proceed to the detailed reserved matters application phase, focusing on the design and layout of the homes and facilities.

Vistry Group anticipates starting infrastructure construction in 2026, with construction on the broader development planned for late 2026.
