First planning application submitted within the Whitehouse Street Regeneration Area

The Galliard Apsley Partnership has submitted a planning application to build homes, commercial space and student accommodation on the land to the south of Princess Street, also known as plots 7 and 8 in the regeneration framework.

This is the first full application submitted within the Whitehouse Street Regeneration Area following the endorsement of the regeneration framework in 2023.

The development seeking approval is for four buildings that would provide 437 build to rent apartments of which 20 per cent would be affordable homes. Approximately 1,200m2 of ground floor space would be dedicated to business and community uses and 400 student bed spaces. Public access through the site is proposed alongside several landscaped open spaces that include some children’s play facilities.

To view the application, search the council planning portal using the reference 25/11778/F. You can comment on the application until Wednesday 4 June 2025.
