The proposals for East Kettering from Alledge Brook LLP bring a new community to the area providing:

One third of the development will be green spaces parks and playing fields The development will help generate an additional 23 million spend in Kettering Town Centre bringing greater improvements and better investments

Meeting the housing challenge

The UK needs to build three million new homes by 2020 to meet housing need and ensure that housing is affordable for young families and first time buyers.

Kettering, as part of the Milton Keynes South Midlands sub-region, has been identified as one of four national growth areas and will benefit from investment in the areas infrastructure. Over 50,000 homes will be built in North Northamptonshire (Corby, Kettering, Wellingborough and East Northants) by 2021 with a further provisional 28,000 by 2031.

To deliver the 13,000 new homes that are needed in Kettering Borough by 2021, the Council is planning to make more intensive use of the existing and brownfield sites in the town. The planning policies also propose a major new development to the east of the town.

The East Kettering development area covers over 300 hectares and extends from the A43 in the north of the site to the A14 in the south.

We have been working on our plans for more than four years. In this period we have held a series of design and environmental workshops for key stakeholders, undertaken widespread consultation including public exhibitions in December 2005 and October 2006, and met with local groups. These consultations helped establish core principles that have underpinned our proposals.
