Former Easington school - housing development site
In continuation of our council house delivery programme a planning application is being prepared for a residential development of 25 affordable homes with associated infrastructure and landscaping on land at the former Easington School site.
The proposal will provide a range of affordable housing consisting of a mix of 2, 3 and 4 bedroom houses, 2 bedroom bungalows and 2 bedroom flats. This will allow for a range of house types which will suit a variety of occupiers.
We welcome your comments on the draft development proposals. Feedback will be used within the submission of our planning application.
Once the planning application is submitted, a statutory period of consultation will occur.
This consultation closes on 27 November 2025.
