Newbury
Welcome
Archel Homes is seeking to understand community views on proposals for approximately 90 new homes at 22-30 Old Bath Road, before submitting a planning application to West Berkshire Council.
We are committed to delivering high-quality new homes that optimise this sustainable brownfield location, respond to the character and appearance of the area and enhance the natural environment.
We are keen to hear your views and invite you to look around the website to learn more about the proposals. You can leave your comments via the ‘Provide Your Feedback’ tab. We will review and carefully consider all the feedback received.

22-30 Old Bath Road comprises approximately 1.19 hectares of redundant office space. Old Bath Road runs along the southern boundary, from which it is accessed, while Western Avenue (A4) runs along the northern boundary.
The location is within walking distance of public transport, employment opportunities, various town centre amenities and recreational facilities, including a football pitch and park.
Our proposed housing mix is as follows:
- 44 one-bedroom apartments

Of the 90 homes provided, 27 will be provided as affordable housing (30%), for both rent and shared ownership.
