Including the delivery of 12 commercial spaces, this is part of the wider Locking Parklands masterplan.

This will ultimately provide around 2,000 homes, subject to planning permission, on the former RAF Locking site.

Vistry’s development will include a mix of homes and deliver 50% affordable housing.

“We’re delighted to be contributing more than 200 new homes to the wider Locking Parklands regeneration site,” said Susan Scholfield, regional managing director at Vistry Bristol.

“With 50% of our homes to be offered in affordable tenures, we’ll be able to make a significant contribution to the area’s affordable housing supply while also providing local people with a range of housing choices.”

Sam Gammon, national disposals lead at Homes England, added: “We’re pleased to be partnering with Vistry on these important phases at Locking Parklands.

“Delivery of these phases will see the areas between the completed primary school, secondary school and GP surgery filled with homes, jobs and amenities that will form a vibrant village centre at the heart of Locking Parklands and the wider Parklands Village.”
