Linden Homes – one of the top 10 housebuilders in the UK – is the house-building arm of the Galliford Try Group.
Linden Homes South West is based in Newton Abbot and is one of 11 regional offi ces that operate right across England, from Cornwall to County Durham.
With a reputation for bespoke and creative sustainable developments in prime locations, Linden Homes prides itself on its high quality of design, and has won numerous awards over the past year that testify to that including three Gold awards from CABE; Best Large Housebuilder of the Year and Best Low or Zero Carbon Initiative for Graylingwell Park at the Housebuilder Awards; and three Building for Life Gold Standard awards out of only 10 presented.
Working with local communities comes as second nature to Linden Homes. We understand that if we are to deliver houses that not only meet the aspirations of those who seek to live in them but also enhance the existing neighbourhood, then we need to talk to and engage with local people. By seeking out local knowledge, and listening to local opinion, we are able to build a fuller picture and identify the wider benefi ts that development can bring to the existing community.
Linden Homes is proud to be part of
the considerate constructor’s scheme,
and works hard with local communities
throughout the construction process
of its developments.

Site Background/the Vision
The ‘VISION’:
The varying nature of the site’s constraints will
provide a range of superb opportunities to create
a stunning local neighbourhood development
that is ‘Of Abbotskerswell’.
The creation of a mix of building sizes, shapes and
tenures arranged to refl ect established settlement
patterns will provide a positive and natural
extension to the existing settlement.
A unique opportunity to provide a vast area
for residents and the wider community for
socializing, dog walking and an ecology
rich woodland glade will stand out as a key
community benefi t that Linden are proud to off er.
The appearance of the dwellings will be designed
to refl ect the historic and local distinctiveness
of Abbotskerswell, using locally recognizable
materials, boundary treatments and landscaping;
to contribute to delivering a high quality living
environment.
The Background & Planning Policy Position:
The planning policy context for this proposal
is set nationally by the National Planning
Policy Framework and locally by the emerging
Teignbridge Local Plan (2013 – 2033).
The former document expects local planning
authorities to boost signifi cantly the supply
of housing. The latter document is nearing
adoption following a recent examination by an
independent inspector.
Policy S4 of the emerging Local Plan requires the
provision of 12,400 dwellings in Teignbridge in
the period 2013 to2033. Much of this growth
is expected in the main towns, such as Newton
Abbot, Dawlish and Teignmouth for example.
However, policy S21 identifi es a number of
villages including Abbotskerswell where there
is access to a good range of services and where
there will be limited development meeting their
social and economic needs, and protecting their
rural character.
This can be, although not exclusively, through a
Neighbourhood Plan. It is this policy context that
informs this proposal.
LINDEN HOMES Manor Road, Abbotskerswell
www.lindenhomes.co.uk/community/abbotskerswell
Creation of a unique open space and
amenity area, using the existing ‘mound’.
Additional fl ood water management
features.
Signifi cant changes in level from northern
tip to the south east corner of the site.
Existing Brook enhanced and managed as
part of the drainage, landscape and ecology
strategy.
Existing residents amenity protected.
Site and Context
Provision of an attractive high quality
managed woodland glade, for general
recreation, outdoor meeting spaces and Ecology
purposes.
North East and part of Northern boundary
kept free of development to allow a ‘Strategic
Flyway’ for bats and to keep development from
peircing the skyline.
Most hedgerows and trees to be retained and
where possible replaced or enhanced.

Proposed Passing Bay
ACCESS:
The site will be accessed from a new priority
junction directly onto Manor Road in the north of
the village. A new footway will be provided from the
access linking to the village in the east.
Manor Road currently has narrow sections and very
low levels of traffi c movements. To accommodate any
increase in traffi c using Manor Road and provide
improvements for existing users, a series of vehicle
passing bays and minor carriageway widening works
are possible.
This would approximately double the length of Manor
Road which is passable by two vehicles and provide
improved pedestrian refuges to improve road safety
for all users.
We are keen to hear views on this as it is not an
essential part of the proposals. Extra parking can be
made available on the site to help alleviate the on
street parking issues on Manor Road and in the village.
FLOODING:
This development is not in a Flood Zone so new
residents of the site will not be at risk of fl ooding. A
key requirement for all new developments is to ensure
that fl ood risk elsewhere is not increased as a result of
the development.
This minimum requirement is achieved at Manor Road
by storing surface water runoff from the newly
developed area and discharging into the watercourse
at the same rate as existing conditions.
However there are known fl ooding issues already
downstream of the site within the village. This is
currently caused by rapid runoff from land and roads
to the north via Firestone Lane which discharges via a
constricted fl owpath through the village.
Therefore extra measures in the form of extreme event
fl ood storage and new gullies will be provided as part
of the new development to intercept this rapid runoff
at the top of the site thereby reducing the rate it
enters the watercourse running through the site.
This will then in turn reduce the volume of water
leaving the site at the bottom and decrease the
frequency of fl ooding in the village compared to the
present undeveloped situation while maintaining a
constant regulated fl ow.

Landscape & Ecology
The site does not lie within a designated site of importance for nature conservation, although most of the site lies within a fl ight corridor for greater horseshoe bats, as identifi ed by Natural England.
The site contains semi-improved neutral grassland and bramble scrub bordered by hedgerows and a stream. Protected species recorded within the site include slow-worm, grass snake and dormouse. The site also provides habitat for nesting birds, feeding bats and insects such as the great green bush cricket.
The northern hedgerow is the principal movement corridor for bats, including greater horseshoe bat. The proposed development would retain and protect the stream corridor and the majority of the hedgerows, including the northern hedgerow. An extensive wildlife and amenity area would be created on the western part of the site, which would include woodland, wetland and glades.
Trees, hedgerows, wildfl ower grassland and wetland would also be created within the eastern part of the site. Bird and bat boxes would be installed on buildings and in retained habitats. An Ecological Impact Assessment Report will be submitted with the planning application, which will detail in full the ecological baseline, assessment of impacts and proposed mitigation and enhancement measures for the development.
A Landscape and Ecological Management Strategy will also be submitted, which will ensure the long-term success of the wildlife proposals.

The Masterplan provided a
framework for the laying out of
future development proposals
to create this exciting new
neighbourhood opportunity.
The plan shown here has been developed
further to show how buildings and spaces
would be arranged on the site and to achieve
an appropriate relationship with the site’s
surroundings and respond to the site unique
characteristics.
The land within the site will deliver a residential
development that may provide up to 55
dwellings but also a signifi cant area set aside
as a woodland glade & amenity area. The key
features of the development are:
Primary vehicular access is to be gained via
ManorRoad.
Potential for an area to be set aside and
made available to the wider community for
parking.
Enhancement of the existing brook
Opportunites for areas for management of
the surface water drainage for the site.
Creation of a unique amenity area for
informal play at the pinnacle of the site.
Lower building heights will be used on
the upper slopes to minimise impact of
the important sky line, also where existing
properties adjacent to the site are lower.
Creation of streets and spaces that echo the
unique characterstics of Abbotskerswell.
The site will contain predominantly
detached and semi detached properties and wil
allow high levels of landscape treatment in this
outer semi rural location.
An assessment of the character of ‘what
makes Abbotskerswell’ has infl uenced the
proposed appearance of new buildings
