Galliford Try secures greenlight for Ellesmere Port Greyhound Stadium transformation

Galliford Try Partnerships has been give the go-ahead to create 141 new homes in Ellesmere Port.

The Warrington-based regeneration firm will give the town’s former Greyhound Stadium a new lease of life by transforming the site into a mix of one-bed apartments and two, three and four-bed houses.

The 10-acre scheme, located just off Thornton Road, will also include new access points and open spaces.

Of the 141 homes, 96 will be sold under Galliford Try’s own Linden Homes brand. The remaining 45 will be built for Cheshire West and Chester Council as affordable homes.

The demolition of the stadium structures will begin next month.

Galliford Try Partnerships’ development director, Darren Leary, said: “Following a detailed planning process, we are delighted that Cheshire West and Chester Council has granted approval for the redevelopment of the Greyhound Stadium.

“This scheme is instrumental in the continued redevelopment and regeneration of Ellesmere Port and we look forward to progressing work on site imminently.”
