Plans in for Cornish housing scheme

Wessex Strategic has submitted plans to build 250 homes in Cornwall.

The scheme is to be developed on around 35 acres of land on Stourscombe Farm on the outskirts of Launceston.

Some 75 of the proposed homes will be affordable.

The site is made up of eight separate fields and is currently used for crop production. To the north of the site is the A30, separated from the site by an area of woodland. Other houses sit to the south and west of the site, with open countryside to the east.

Wessex Strategic made a previous pre-application enquiry to Cornwall Council in June 2023, which a planning officer found conflicted with the adopted development plan for Launceston concerning land earmarked for housing.
