New details for plans that would see up to 360 more homes built in a village near Warwick have been revealed - and objections are already mounting.

We reported last year that Taylor Wimpey was getting ready to submit an outline planning application to Warwick District Council for new homes and green public open spaces on land east of Old Budbrooke Road in Hampton Magna – and now it has put forward the application.

Overnight road closures announced for major Warwick route

The site is made up of two agricultural fields – with the northern field being south of Warwick Parkway Station, east of Old Budbrooke Road and west of the A46.

The southern field has the A46 on its eastern side.

The developer said it has submitted the application following public consultations during autumn of 2025 and includes up to 360 ‘low carbon homes’, which the developer said would “incorporate air source heat pumps, solar panels and EV charging points”.

Up to 50 per cent of the homes would also be ‘affordable’ – which includes homes for social rent and shared ownership properties aimed at first time buyers.

Taylor Wimpey said the plans also include public green open spaces, children's play areas, new footpath connections, a community garden or orchard, as well as the potential to provide allotments.

A new ‘active travel connection’ through the site for a potential connection to the south side of Warwick Parkway railway station has also been proposed.

Stephen Swinscoe, strategic land regional director at Taylor Wimpey, said: “We are very grateful to everyone who took part in our community consultation last year.

"All feedback we received was considered and we are pleased to have submitted our outline planning application to Warwick District Council.

“Local aspirations for infrastructure investment and improved travel connections were noted.

"In addition to a package of investment that will support local services, our outline plans also include proposed new walking and cycling routes connecting with a potential onward link to the south side of Warwick Parkway Station.

"We look forward to continuing to work with the council and community as our plans develop.”

If given the go ahead, there would be three access points created for the site.

In the planning documents it said the primary access would be via a ‘ghost island’ right turn from Old Budbrooke Road and two secondary access points – with a ‘simple priority junctions’ – would be created from Arras Boulevard and Gould Road.

Currently, Gould Road is a cul-de-sac style street with a ‘dead end’ and concerns have been raised within objections to the plans.

Several residents have said the road is currently too narrow to be able to cope with two-way traffic or become a through-road to the new development and that this could end up causing safety problems.

Other objection reasons included: a loss of green belt, an already struggling infrastructure which will not be able to cope with more homes, excessive and increased traffic, noise, the potential accident risk for the access roads, the development ruining the character of the village and flooding concerns.

So far more than 20 objections have been lodged but two comments have been made in support highlighting the need for housing.
