Manor Park, Nuneaton

WPDG progress with Reserved Matters submission following completion of demolition works at former Manor Park School in Nuneaton

Warwickshire Property and Development Group (WPDG) secured outline planning consent for the delivery of up to 58 new houses and development of up to 65 Extra Care apartments.

Warwickshire County Council (WCC) secured a resolution to grant planning consent in 2019. WCC signed the Section 106 Agreement in November 2022, securing outline planning consent and enabling WPDG to progress delivery of the new homes scheme.

WPDG submitted a Section 73 planning application, to vary the planning conditions of the outline consent, to aid scheme delivery. This application was granted in May 2024.

A formal tender process, to appoint a preferred delivery partner, was concluded and the selected delivery partner entered into both a Pre-Construction Services Agreement and a Minor Works Contract for the demolition works, in September 2024, simultaneous with the completion of the acquisition of the property by WPDG from WCC.

Demolition works have been completed on site and a Reserved Matters application has been prepared and submitted to Nuneaton & Bedworth Borough Council.
