Brookleigh

The multi-million pound flagship development at Brookleigh is being brought forward by Homes England and their development partners. The involvement of Homes England brings certainty for local residents that the supporting infrastructure will be delivered at the right time.

The outline planning application was approved by Mid Sussex District Council in October 2019. Brookleigh will deliver approximately 3,500 new homes, 30 per cent of which will be affordable. The new homes will be built alongside new community facilities including three neighbourhood centres, three new schools and employment opportunities. The development will ensure easy access to public transport and walking and cycling routes.
