Learn how we intend to bring forward proposals for a residential development off Woodlands Road, in Bedworth.
Taylor Wimpey is consulting on plans for a residential development for 150 new homes. The proposals include a range of house types, including affordable housing, public open space and children’s play space. We will be providing a range of house types from 1-bedroom homes to 5-bedroom homes with a majority of 2-bedroom to 4-bedroom homes. Most of the homes will be 2-storey with some 2.5 storey buildings at key locations.Vehicle access will be from Woodlands Road with additional pedestrian and cycle access to the wider area.
The public consultation was held at Bedworth Methodist Church on Thursday 9th October 2025.
Taylor Wimpey is aiming to submit a Reserved Matters planning application during the Autumn of this year. Following the submission of the application, Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council will then undertake a period of statutory consultation on the proposals.
The public consultation period has now closed. Thank you to everyone who took the time to attend and share their feedback.

(Hybrid permission for the demolition of the existing Woodlands Farmhouse and agricultural buildings and the erection of up to 150 residential dwellings, and associated infrastructure, public open space and landscaping was granted via appeal in 6th December 2024.)
Taylor Wimpey is now preparing a reserved matters planning application which will consider the appearance, landscaping, layout and scale. Environmental Commitment Environmental Commitment All new Taylor Wimpey homes include enhanced insulation, energy-efficient walls and windows, 100% low energy light fittings and energy-efficient appliances, as well as water saving measures with all homes having meters fitted, low flow taps and showers and dual flush toilets. Electric vehicle charging points will be provided to every home. Landscaping and Ecology Landscaping and Ecology
- The development will be sensitively landscaped to protect local wildlife and enhance biodiversity. A 10% biodiversity net gain will be achieved through additional on-site planting and on the wider Arbury Estate land. Landscaping will also be enhanced to support breeding birds.
- Almost all existing trees and hedgerows will be retained. Furthermore, we will provide bee bricks, bird boxes, bug hotels, great crested newt viaducts and hedgehog highways. We will introduce new residents to nature friendly gardening and distribute home welcome packs that include wildflower seeds to all purchasers.
- Ecologists will translocate any great crested newts to one of the existing ponds to ensure they are protected from harm and check for bats prior to the demolition of the farmhouse. The development will be sensitively lit to ensure foraging opportunities for bats are protected in the future.
- Bedworth Flash Meadow Local Wildlife Site (LWS) falls within the development and The Nook LWS sits directly adjacent. These areas have been retained and incorporated into the design.
- To support local infrastructure, contributions of over £1.8 million have been secured through a S.106 agreement and include;
1. Bus service contribution - £330,000
2. Bus Stops Maintenance - £11,500
3. Cycleway and Pedestrian Route (to Bedworth Town Centre) - £240,000
