Wain Homes South West has released an updated plan for the development of the former CeramTec site in Colyton.

The plan will be the basis for a 'reserved matters' application to East Devon District Council, which has already given outline permission for 72 homes and six light industrial units.

The reserved maters application covers finer details of the development, including the appearance, landscaping, layout and scale properties.

The most obvious change from the previous plan is that the public space, show on the left of the image above, has been moved from its previously proposed position adjoining Sidmouth Road.

Existing trees are retained and there is a public focal space at the centre of the site.

A separate plan shows the proposed position of 14 affordable homes - 10 of them to rent and four shared ownership.

Wain Homes South West planning manager, John Rudge, said: "We also needed to alter the drainage ponds to ensure they worked from an engineering perspective.

"What we want to achieve is a highly well-designed scheme that will blend seamlessly into the wider settlement, resulting in a development that enhances the wider setting and makes residents proud to reside there.

"We are pushing and pushing as a business to increase the quality of not just our house types, but the wider developments as a whole. We are really excited about Colyton."
