Approval for 'distinctive' housing development

Plans have been approved for a new housing scheme.

WH Kerkham and architect Tate + Co have been backed to deliver an estate in Heacham, West Norfolk.

Bosses say the Cheney Hill scheme will transform a 6.15-hectare farmland expanse into a “distinctive new neighbourhood that sets a benchmark for sustainable rural development”.

WH Kerkham and Tate + Co worked alongside Borough Council of King’s Lynn and West Norfolk planners on the development.

Julian Kerkham, director at WH Kerkham, said: “We look forward to bringing forward a development that contributes positively to Heacham’s future.

“By working closely with the local authorities and Tate + Co, we’ve ensured this is a scheme that delivers real community value.”

Jerry Tate, founder and director at London-based Tate + Co, added: “This project is about more than building houses; it is about creating a place that strengthens Heacham’s community fabric.

“By providing new green spaces, safe walking and cycling routes and thoughtfully designed homes, the development will not only meet local housing needs but deliver lasting benefits for existing residents.”
