Neighbours who live on a fast growing development in Gedling borough have shared how they love having the best of both worlds living between the city and countryside. As the Rivendell development at Teal Close progresses with the second phase of house building currently underway, residents have spoken out about how the community has shaped up.
The site, which is situated off Colwick Loop Road between Netherfield and Stoke Bardolph, will eventually be occupied by around 800 new homes along with a hotel, a pub, playing pitches and changing facilities, public open space and allotments.
So far a number of residents have moved into their properties over the last couple of years, and a primary school and a care home have been completed, as well as a brand new Aldi and a Bird's Bakery which have opened on the site. In 2022, it was reported that neighbours had "no complaints" that more homes were being added to the development and that seems to still be the case.
