Allocated development site with strong road links and waterside setting.
Site extends to approximately 58.87 acres (23.82 hectares)
A rare strategic development holding of about 23.82 hectares (58.87 acres) positioned around the new Westwood Way connector. The site is allocated for development in the local plan and is considered most suitable for residential-led, mixed-use schemes, with scope for commercial elements and green corridors beside the Wigan flashes.
Key strengths include excellent new road infrastructure, close proximity to Wigan town centre, broad open water and woodland amenity, very low flood and crime risk, and strong mobile signal. The land can be offered as a whole or considered in multiple parcels, giving flexibility for single developers or phased, multi-party schemes.
Important practical points: allocation in the local plan is not the same as detailed planning permission; interested parties must make their own enquiries on zoning and deliverability. Tenure details are unknown and will need confirming. Broadband speeds in the area are reported slow, and the wider locality is significantly deprived, both factors to consider for viability and funding assumptions.
This opportunity suits housebuilders, residential-led mixed-use investors and strategic land buyers able to manage infrastructure, planning strategy and market positioning. Expressions of interest are invited; further sale structure and bidding details will be provided to interested parties as the process is confirmed.
