The location of the new housing estate in Chadderton
Councillors are set to make a decision on plans to build a huge new housing estate of 160 homes in Oldham.
The borough’s planning committee is set to vote on the proposals to develop agricultural land currently occupied by Matthew Fold Farm in Chadderton on Wednesday (April 21).
The site, which is bounded by Broadway to the east, is south of Newman RC College and the school playing fields.
The new development by applicant FO Developments LLP would be made up of 34, two-bed, 96 three-bed and 30 four-bedroom houses.
Of these, 51 would be classed as ‘affordable’ dwellings, split into a mix of shared ownership and affordable rent.
