At the end of March 2024, SLR Consulting sent letters to residents on behalf of Bargate Homes, inviting them to provide feedback about Bargate Homes’ proposal for a plot of land referred to as Land west of Beechlands Road, previously subjected to EIA screening as Land East of Cawk House, Stoney Lane. This plot is a component of their master project aiming to pursue a significant extension to the village of Medstead, which has been actively promoted by Bargate since 2019.
