Development of approximately 105 dwellings, including affordable housing and open space
The proposed development would provide additional housing and affordable housing for Girton. Girton is surrounded by the Green Belt, and there are limited opportunities for infill development within the settlement boundary, and as such a very limited amount of housing and affordable housing will have been provided in the village in recent years. The proposed development would include open space and landscaping, which would also provide ecological benefits. The proposed development would support the existing services and facilities in Girton including convenience stores, public houses and bus services
The site could accommodate 105 dwellings, which is based on a density of 30 dwellings/hectare and reflects the edge of settlement location and character of village and surrounding area.

The site is accessed via a single track road from Oakington Road to the west.
There are some designated heritage assets located relatively close to the site, including the Grade II* listed Church of St Andrew. A proposed development could be carefully designed to preserve the setting of these assets.
The proposed development will need to provide new utilities infrastructure, but there are services to the neighbouring urban area and so new connections will be possible.
The site is promoted by a willing landowner, and is available for development.
It is anticipated that the site will be attractive to the market, because other sites in Girton and elsewhere in villages close to Cambridge have been subject to strong demand from developers and housebuilders. In addition, there is a limited supply of development sites in Girton, and the site is well related to Cambridge.
