Following adoption of the Barnsley Local Plan in January 2019 we worked in partnership with Barnsley Council and the two key landowners namely Hoyland Developments Ltd and the Harworth Group to prepare and coordinate a Masterplan Framework.

The purpose was to demonstrate how a collection of housing and employment allocations were capable of being developed without specific issues and enable a comprehensive, efficient and timely delivery of development including essential infrastructure requirements.

The masterplan developed an overall vision for Hoyland North to create a mixed use community comprising of around 765 new homes and 37 hectares of employment land with associated infrastructure set within a green space network that support multi functions and activities.

The Masterplan Framework was completed and formally adopted by Barnsley Council on 19th December 2019. The contents and approach will be a material consideration in the determination of future planning applications.
