Bellway Homes is proposing a massive 526-home development on Landgate Farm in Ashton-in-Makerfield, including a new link road to ease traffic, upgraded sports facilities, and donated land for expanded special needs education at Landgate School. While the site was already earmarked for development, critics like local councillor Steve Jones argue brownfield sites should be prioritized and question the need for the new road. The developer counters with 25% affordable housing via Onward Homes and improved community amenities, launching a public consultation from August 14–28 to gather feedback before final planning applications. This pivotal moment puts the community at the center of a complex decision balancing housing demand, infrastructure, and conservation.
