Summary

A huge housing development planned for a city outskirts has taken a big step forward.

Bristol City Council-owned firm Goram Homes has announced it will be working with Countryside Partnership on the Hengrove Park scheme.

Once finished, it will contain 1,400 properties - a mixture of flats and houses.

The new development will be built on the site of the former Whitchurch Airfield to the south of the city.

A new energy centre containing air source heat pumps will also be developed, connecting the new homes and surrounding business to low carbon heating and hot water through a district heating network.
