Learn about new exciting proposals for residential land in Rossendale.
The Land West of Market Street is a perfect site to deliver sustainable new homes that will be designed to be practical, contemporary, attractive and ideal for different lifestyles. Our scheme will offer much-needed homes that will be available in a variety of styles and sizes, from starter homes suitable for younger people trying to get their foot on the housing ladder, to larger ‘forever’ family homes.
Our Masterplan will have strong placemaking values at its core, and will set the design foundations for three distinctive neighbourhoods that are well-connected and have a close relationship with the surrounding environment.
Construction of these new homes is expected to begin in late 2025, with show homes due for opening in Summer 2026 and residents moving in from late Autumn 2026.
Our proposal for The Vale at Edenfield
The master plan
Delivering around 400 high quality new homes in total, with a first phase of around 235, in a variety of sizes, styles and tenures to meet the needs of local people in the Borough, including a diverse range of affordable homes;
Designing distinct communities that have strong relationships with the site’s natural features and heritage;
Providing generous areas of public open space and outdoors sports provision for future residents and the wider community;
Creating a more natural and protected Green Belt boundary to the west of Edenfield;
Delivering a landscape-led Masterplan that complements the surrounding areas whilst retaining as many existing trees and other natural features possible;

Generating an estimated household expenditure in the region of £11 million each year;
Encouraging active and sustainable travel through the creation of new pedestrian and cycle links, and retaining and enhancing existing public rights of way;

This will be funded via proportionate Section 106 contributions from each subsequent planning application. A Section 106 agreement is a legal document that sits alongside a planning permission to secure the relevant contributions, often restricting the level of development that can come forward before these contributions are made.
