460 acres of north Leicestershire countryside sold to Davidsons and Barwood Homes for new 'garden village'

Some 460 acres of north Leicestershire countryside have been sold to pave the way for a new village in what has been called one of the region’s “largest and most complex land deals”.

Agents Wells McFarlane, APB and Newton LDP – acting on behalf of two private landowning families – secured the sale to housebuilders Davidsons Homes and Barwood Homes for an undisclosed sum.

The land sits between the villages of Birstall and Rothley, next to the A6 and A46, part way between Loughborough and Leicester.
