Housebuilder The Hill Group has submitted a planning application for more than 100 new homes at the Amerind Grove site on Raleigh Road in Bristol.
Hill will deliver three-, four- and five-bedroom family houses, as well as one and two-bedroom apartments and three-bedroom maisonettes at the 3.5-acre site, which was formerly the site of the Wills Tobacco Factory. Approximately one-third (30%) of the homes will be affordable.
Andy Hill OBE, group chief executive of The Hill Group, said: “There is an acute housing shortage in Bristol, particularly for family homes. We have worked with the local Southville community to ensure our planning application for the Amerind Grove site will help address local housing needs. It will provide a sustainable development of over 100 high-quality, energy-efficient family homes, including over 30 much-needed affordable homes for local people, and we look forward to working with Bristol City Council to successfully progress this application.”
