Plans approved for 1,300 homes and community facilities in Tangmere

Vistry Group has secured approval from Chichester District Council for the delivery of 1300 high-quality mixed-tenure homes and community facilities in Tangmere, West Sussex.

Acting as lead designers, tor&co provided masterplanning, heritage and landscape services for the Tangmere Strategic Development Location Site, which will bring forward high-quality new homes alongside a new primary school, community and commercial facilities. This marks a significant milestone for a project that has been shaped in close collaboration with Tangmere Parish Council and local residents over several years.

Director for tor&co, Richard Burton said “having worked on this project for many years we are delighted this important milestone has now been achieved and very much look forward to developing the next stage of the design, including preparing the design code and landscape infrastructure and public realm proposals. The ‘one village’ concept, developed with Tangmere Parish Council and the local community, will remain central to the design philosophy ”. 

The project will now proceed to the detailed reserved matters application phase, focusing on the design and layout of the homes and facilities. Infrastructure construction is planned to start in 2026.
