Residential Development Land , Gloucester Road, Corse, Gloucestershire , GL19

Corse, Staunton is a small village located in the county of Gloucestershire, England, within the civil parish of Staunton. It is situated in the Forest of Dean district, approximately 7 miles north-west of the City of Gloucester. The village is primarily residential, with a mix of traditional cottages and modern homes, set amidst the rural landscape of Gloucestershire. Although small in population, the village is well-connected, offering easy access to nearby towns and cities, making it a desirable location for those seeking a rural lifestyle while remaining close to urban amenities. The site is accessed via an existing entrance on the eastern boundary onto the A417 which itself connects the village to Gloucester, Cheltenham, Cirencester, and the M5 and M50 motorways. The easily accessible wider road network means that the site benefits from a wide range of transport links.

- 1.88 ha of green infrastructure (over 50% of site area) including formal and informal public open space;
- Improved connectivity to existing Public Right of Way network; and

Access to the site is proposed to be gained via a new priority junction on the eastern boundary including a designated right-turn lane. The transport assessment confirmed the visibility splay can be achieved. The development will be set back from the road by 26m behind a new community orchard and will include two play areas.
