One of the Midland’s largest emerging communities

South East Coalville

Overview & Vision

Harworth are bringing forward over 2,000 homes in a National Forest setting, together with other uses including a primary school, local centre and new public open space with footpaths and cycleways.

Acting as lead developer and in partnership with Bloor Homes, Davidsons Group and SECP Ltd, outline planning permission was obtained by Harworth in 2016 for the delivery of 2,700 homes on the 440-acre Leicestershire site in South-East Coalville. 

The development is subject to a detailed Design Code, inspired by the area’s National Forest surroundings. This Design Code was worked up with local stakeholders including North West Leicestershire Council.

South East Coalville comprises of two main regions: Hugglescote Grange and Swinfen Vale. Hugglescote Grange sits within the Parish of Hugglescote & Donington le Heath and is located on the northern side of the development between Grange Road and the River Sence. It is named after the surrounding villages and historical farming uses in the area.

Swinfen Vale is within the Parish of Ellistown and Battleflat and forms the southern side of the development between the River Sence and Beverridge Lane, bounded by the rail line along the eastern edge and the former railway embankment to the west. Swinfen Vale is named after the historic settlement and its setting in the River Sence valley.

Development Progress

Phase 1 of the development began in Q1 2020 with land being prepared for the delivery of the first 350-480 homes at Hugglescote Grange. In June 2020, 16 acres of engineered land was sold to Redrow Homes for the construction of the first 204 family homes with these works currently on-site. In December 2020, 12.5 acres was sold to Bellway Homes for the delivery of 166 homes with these works due to commence in 2021.

A new access roundabout off Grange Road has been completed and internal roads and services are also under construction. This will open up around 40 acres in four separate parcels, for future housing development accommodating approximately 480 new homes.

An extensive area of landscaping and public open space is to be constructed between the River Sence and the residential parcels.
