A Genuinely Sustainable Neighbourhood in Cheltenham
Welcome
Welcome to our updated website about Elms Park, a new, genuinely sustainable neighbourhood which will deliver a thriving community and become a distinctive gateway to Cheltenham.
Here you will find everything you need to know about the plans for Elms Park at Northwest Cheltenham, a mixed-use development located on land north of Tewkesbury Road (A4019) between the Kingsditch Trading Estate and Uckington.
As with any project of this scale, consultation with many stakeholders, including nearby residents, has resulted in refinements to the proposals since the project started in 2012, and the outline planning permission was submitted back in 2016.
However, the core elements of the Elms Park application remain unchanged; the Elms Park Consortium (Persimmon Homes and Bloor Homes) is still proposing a new mixed-use development which will comprise 4,115 new homes (35% being affordable housing), a modern 10-hectare business park, three new schools (one secondary and two primary), multiple upgrades to offsite cycling routes, extensive green infrastructure and a new transport hub with links into central Cheltenham and Tewkesbury.
The Elms Park Consortium is pleased that its planning applications for Elms Park will be considered by the planning committees of Tewkesbury Borough Council and Cheltenham Borough Council in May 2025..
