Update – 23 November 2022
Bellway Homes has recently acquired the Water Eaton site (also known as PR6a) from Christ Church. We will shortly be launching a public consultation on the updated proposals for the site in advance of submitting an outline planning application to Cherwell District Council early in the New Year.
As you will be aware, Christ Church has carried out considerable engagement and consultation to better understand the site and to seek input into its vision and principles for development. Bellway is committed to taking this work forward to deliver the best possible scheme and will be continuing to work closely with Christ Church throughout this process.
Since the initial consultation in Autumn 2021 and the design development consultation in the summer, the team has continued to shape and refine proposals, taking into consideration the feedback received together with initial findings from surveys and assessments.
Our Winter 2022/3 consultation will be an opportunity to see how the project has evolved and to provide further feedback and comments prior to the formal consultation when the application is submitted. It will also be a chance for the Bellway team to meet stakeholders and residents.
The consultation period is open from 7 December and will run until 20 January 2023.
Two drop-in events will be held where people can learn more about our plans, meet the project team and ask their questions. These will be held on:
- Saturday 10 December: 10am-1pm, Cutteslowe Pavilion Hall, OX2 8ES
- Wednesday 14 December: 3pm-6pm, North Oxford Association Community Centre, Diamond Place, Summertown, OX2 7DP
An online event will also take place from 18:00 to 19:30 on Monday 12 December. Please register to attend the webinar here.
