Sale of Cawston Grange Local Centre

Location of strategic land being promoted at Cawston Grange. Map plan.

Cawston Grange at Rugby was a 1,600 unit urban extension to the town, jointly promoted between Hallam Land Management (HLM), Gallaghers and William Davis. Securing a consent back in the late 1990’s, the scheme is now almost completely built out.

Part of the consent included a small area for a local centre which now includes a convenience store and car park, but no further interest for retail. It was therefore decided in 2021 to undertake a pre-application discussion with the Council with a view to selling the site, unconditionally, pre-consent, for a residential scheme capable of delivering up to nine, 2 & 3 bed dwellings. With a positive Council response, HLM began sales negotiations with Poonah Investments Ltd who purchased the site, unconditionally in April 2022 for £500,000.
