Lyndhurst Farm and Scotts Wood Park Affordable Housing Projects

Borehamwood & Bushey - Hertsmere, Hertfordshire

Executive summary from entrant:

Griggs’ in-house Planning Team has delivered two record-breaking affordable housing schemes in Hertsmere, securing planning permission for over 430 affordable homes at Lyndhurst Farm and Scotts Wood Park. In a borough delivering just 39 affordable homes annually against a need for 590, these permissions represent a transformational increase in provision. The team secured consent for 80% affordable housing at Lyndhurst Farm, now progressing as a 100% affordable scheme under construction, and 70% affordable housing at Scotts Wood Park, the largest ever approved locally. These outcomes demonstrate how expert planning leadership can unlock sites and deliver meaningful social and community benefit.
