Land At Exchange Street, Edenfield

Anwyl Land

The site is located within the Green Belt to the north west of Edenfield and has been identified as part of a wider Housing Allocation for 400 homes in the draft Rossendale Local Plan. Hive represented Anwyl Land in the Examination in Public held in September/October 2019 and are hopeful that the Plan will be adopted by the end of 2020.

Delivery

The site being promoted is in itself capable of delivering 90-100 homes and Hive have liaised closely with the other developers that also form part of the wider Housing Allocation – Taylor Wimpey and Peel. Communication between the various interested parties and the Council has therefore been key and demonstrates the Hive team’s ability to work in a positive and collaborative way.
  • Designing a detailed strategy and programme to unlock 48 residential sites with a capacity of 3,500+ new homes.
  • Production of a PID, implementation plan, site prioritisation matrix, area based promotion and marketing documents, and individual proformas for each site including an analysis of the interventions required
  • A landowner engagement strategy and extensive engagement with funding bodies (including Homes England) aimed at specifically addressing viability challenges.
  • Drafting an investment prospectus and launch event to directly market the sites to developers.

Cotton Works, Wigan

We secured £24m of Good Growth funding for the Heaton Group through a fiercely competitive process. Without this essential grant, the project simply couldn’t proceed. Acting as the keystone between key players at GMCA and Wigan Council, we coordinated a compelling funding submission that demonstrated the scheme’s transformational potential.

Town centre regeneration is a political priority across Greater Manchester, but delivery depends on making the numbers work. Cotton Works is designed to be the catalyst that unlocks wider investment in Wigan town centre. It demonstrates what’s possible when you align public sector ambition with private sector capability, creating places that actually work for local people. That’s what this funding achieves.
