Land Case Study for Langmead Place, Angmering

Langmead Place in Angmering, West Sussex, is a 525-home scheme on the edge of Angmering on former agricultural land alongside a racetrack. The community has good access to facilities and services in the village, as well as other nearby towns such as Littlehampton and Worthing, while enjoying views of South Downs National Park.

The site benefitted from outline planning permission when Cala purchased it, and Cala sold a self-contained parcel with permission for up to 173 new homes, separated by existing green corridors, to Bellway. Consequently, Cala’s parcels of land had permission for up to 352 new homes.

Cala and Bellway subsequently submitted a joint reserved matters application with each responsible for the design and house types of their own parcels, in line with the outline planning permission. Cala’s parcels include 158, or 30%, affordable homes, with the remaining 194 homes being two-, three- and four-bed ‘light and space’ house types. As part of the development, there is also 3 acres dedicated to employment space.
