Springbok Estate

  • Alfold, Surrey
  • c.350 new homes
  • 1 - 4 bedroom homes
  • New infrastructure

In summer 2022, our team consulted with residents of Alfold about proposals for 66 homes on the site. The overwhelming message that we received was that people did not support new housing which didn’t bring forward new infrastructure. As a result of those discussions, we took the decision not to continue with the application for 66 homes and to work with the local community to support the delivery of new infrastructure and community benefits requested by the people of Alfold.

We appreciate that Alfold has seen its fair share of development over the past decade and much of this new development has not been of such a scale as to support the provision of new infrastructure. That is why we plan to change the approach. Rather than continue with promoting development on smaller parcels of land, we want to create a cohesive plan for the site, which delivers genuine infrastructure-led benefits for existing and future residents of Alfold.

Latestupdate

In late 2023, we invited the community to attend a series of roundtable discussions about the potential future development of the next phases of the Springbok Estate. We appreciate that Alfold has seen a high level of housebuilding in recent years, and are grateful to those who attended for the constructive and polite way in which they engaged with the project team.

We are moving forward with the next phase of plans for up to 245 market homes,105 new affordable homes and new infrastructure at the Springbok Estate. We held public consultation events in April 2024 for interested parties to learn more about our plans.
