Update on first phases of The Woodlands
Posted on: 09 Oct 23
You may have noticed many homes have now been completed on the first phases of The Woodlands development, moving all housebuilding in the village closer to completion.
The six phases within The Woodlands will have a total of 202 built by Jessups. Residents were consulted about the Jessups phases of development in 2020.

Due to an increasingly challenging housing market and people being unable to secure mortgages, Jessup, who are developing The Woodlands, have looked at other ways to ensure that the homes are occupied. Working with Homes England, the Wrekin Housing Group (have bought 35 new homes at The Woodlands for Rent to Buy, a government scheme to help working households save for a deposit to buy a home.
This is an exciting opportunity for people to live and buy their own home in Lightmoor Village and reflects our mission of creating and sustaining communities where people can thrive. We look forward to welcoming new residents and The Wrekin Housing Group to the village.
