Allison Homes South West has secured planning consent for 90 new homes in Calne, Wiltshire.
The site off Spitfire Road will offer a mix of affordable housing, alongside two-, three- and four-bedroom homes, a play area and green open space.
The scheme received outline approval in February 2025 and after acquiring the site, Allison Homes submitted a reserved matters application, which was deferred by councillors in August 2026 despite a recommendation for approval from Wiltshire Council officers. Following minor adjustments to the scheme, the council’s northern area planning committee approved the proposals.
Andy Cattermole, planning director at Allison Homes South West, said: “We’re delighted to have secured planning permission for this high quality scheme. The new homes will help meet local housing need while providing green space, sustainable design and investment in local infrastructure. After a 10-month determination process, despite the scheme having outline permission and no objections from officers, we’re pleased to be able to move forward and begin delivering these much-needed homes.
“We welcome the government’s planning reforms, including the National Scheme of Delegation, which should help high quality schemes like this to progress more quickly and relieve pressure on the lack of local and affordable housing. We’ll continue to work closely with council officers, local residents and stakeholders as construction begins over the coming months.”
