Harlow Council has granted approval for approximately 200 new homes within the emerging Wych Elm development in Harlow.

The approved scheme for 4 Wych Elm forms part of a trio of proposed new blocks designed by Ackroyd Lowrie. Each of these schemes includes a mix of residential apartments alongside ground-floor commercial spaces.

Oliver Lowrie, Practice Director, said: “Harlow town centre is experiencing a significant change in its context, particularly on the northern boundary where Wych Elm is located. This newly approved group of sustainable developments is purposefully designed to present a unified approach for the key corners of Wych Elm and act as a catalyst for future regeneration.”

A new public realm has been designed to enhance connections between the town centre and the nearby Rectory Wood, providing improved accessibility to green space for residents.
