Community Planning Event
Ware Priory, High Street, Ware SG12 9AL

Ptarmigan Land is acting for land owners of the area to the North & East of Ware, which has been allocated in the adopted District Plan for a residential-led, mixed-use development of 1,000 homes, with a further 500 homes once highway matters can be resolved. The new community will be supported by a new link road, schools, neighbourhood centre, healthcare, local shops, business opportunities, sports facilities and public open spaces. Ptarmigan Land is keen to work closely with the local community to bring forward the best possible development and this event was the beginning of that engagement.

We at JTP are assisting Ptarmigan Land in drawing up a scheme for the site and are seeking local input to make sure that it will reflect local character and relate well to the existing town and surrounding parishes. We want local people to help us better understand the area, create a Vision to shape the new community, and contribute to an emerging Masterplanning Framework Document (MFD) for the development. This fact-finding stage was just the beginning and we will be engaging with you again before a draft document is submitted to the District Council for approval, once it is happy to agree it. When the MFD has been agreed, all development at the site will need to comply with the contents.  

This event was the first chance to join in and help shape the new community – everyone was welcome! People could view an exhibition and leave comments, or join one of our workshops to really get involved.

If you were unable to attend the event you can get in touch by contacting our Community Planning team at community@jtp.co.uk or Freephone 08000126730.
