Detailed plans for 143 new houses have been put forward to Warwick District Council.

Persimmon Homes has submitted the reserved matters application for the next phase of its Thickthorn development.

Full planning permission has already been granted for the first 98 homes along Leamington Road, which are already under construction and some on the market.

The developer has been given outline planning consent for a further 452 homes, and did submit a reserved matters application for all of these earlier this year.

However, an updated application for just a third of these homes has now been submitted to the council.

"The appearance of this scheme ensures a positive contribution to the character and quality of the environment," the latest planning application said.

If approved, the scheme will see the houses at the other end of the development given the green light, with a mixture of two, three, four and five-bed homes built.

Some 44 per cent (63 dwellings) would be designated affordable housing.

"The proposal will incorporate varied types of on-site public open space, required infrastructure and the spine road in its entirety," the application added.

"To conclude, the proposals will deliver a high-quality development, which will provide much needed housing within the local area."

These homes constitute phase two of the development, with phases three and four to be submitted further down the line.

Access to the second phase will come off Glasshouse Lane, funding for which has already been signed off.

When Kenilworth Town Council discussed the previous reserved matters application for the full 452 homes, councillors branded it "insulting".

Councillors also said they were "outraged" that the plans were not in line with the Land East of Kenilworth development brief - a major planning document designed to guide new estates across that side of town.

And councillors have previously revealed that residents on the new estate will be forced to use the community facilities at the new Kenilworth School for a while, rather than the purpose-built facilities included in the application.
