Plans seek to convert St Thomas More Church site into nine high quality homes, with parking, gardens, and road access.

Michael Ford wants to change these buildings and plans nine nice homes. He wants the design to look good and reuse the buildings.
There will be twenty parking spots, with each home getting its own garden. A new road comes via Kirkstone Court, giving access to the new houses.
The plan keeps the church’s old look and key features. Buildings will look historic as homes, helping the property’s future.
The new homes should stop decay, preventing more damage. The homes add good housing, which is needed now.
This plan uses the site well as the location is very suitable for homes. The design fits in with everything nearby and includes four homes with two beds each, and five homes with three beds each.
Building this creates jobs for people in different trades, giving local people a chance to work. You can view the plans online by searching the council website for planning, using reference number H/2024/0384.
