Work on new homes at the former Copthorne Barracks site in Shrewsbury is progressing ahead of the development's spring launch.

Housebuilder Bellway is building a mix of one, two, three and four-bedroom homes on the site off Copthorne Road.

The first few plots at the development – which will be known as Copthorne Keep – are set to be released for sale in April

Marie Richards, Sales Director for Bellway West Midlands, said: “We are really pleased that the new homes at Copthorne Keep are beginning to take shape.

“There is a growing demand for new homes in Shropshire, so we have worked closely with local authorities to ensure we are helping to meet this need.

“The development has been carefully planned to offer properties that suit all types of people, from smaller homes for first-time buyers and downsizers to larger properties for growing families.

“We have already received a great deal of interest in the new homes at Copthorne Keep, so I would encourage anyone interested to register for updates on our website to avoid missing out.”

As part of the planning agreement, Bellway will also be making contributions to the area, including £110,000 towards highway maintenance, more than £30,000 towards open space and a further £115,000 for a new sports pitch.
