FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Peel submit new plans for massively controversial wigan development | History Defined

Plans for a controversial new 1,050-home community on land north of Mosley Common in Wigan, following two rounds of public consultation.

The applications from Peel L&P include outline planning for a wider masterplan for the area and detailed plans for new homes at Twire at Mosley Common, the first phase of development. The overall development has been reduced by 50 homes following the original 1,100 home masterplan that got the green light in September 2022 from Wigan Council.

As well as 25 per cent affordable homes, there are plans for a new transport hub in partnership with Transport for Greater Manchester to improve connectivity and active travel via the Leigh Guided Busway and commuter routes.
