THERE will be a chance to discuss a proposed 2500 home development in the Chesterton area of Cirencester on Wednesday October 22.

At Bingham House Gallery, on Dyer Street Cirencester, the design team from John Thompson and Partners, which is responsible for the development, will update the public about recent studies relating to the development.

The event will mark the latest in a series of community events to consider the emerging proposals for a new mixed-use neighbourhood.

The forum follows on from a coach trip in August when around twenty members of the community joined the design team to visit best practice examples of new neighbourhoods in Aylesbury Vale and Bedfordshire.

The forum will focus on technical work undertaken as part of the development of the proposals. There will be updates on highways, archaeology, ecology utilities and services as well as the latest from the team.

The forum will run between 6.30pm and 8.30pm.
