The proposals, designed by Sheppard Robson and landscape architect Re-form, include the development of six blocks of flats ranging from six to 20 storeys and 53 three-storey townhouses at the Talbot Road site.

The plans comprise nearly 640 homes across a mix of one, two and three-bedroom flats and three and four-bedroom houses.

A mixed offer of private rent, private sale, shared ownership and affordable rent will be available, with at least 15% Affordable Housing.

As part of the planning application, the scheme will include 5.4-acres of public realm, 5,300 sq ft of retail on the ground floor and 200 parking spaces.

After securing outline planning consent to redevelop the former 12-acre Kellogg’s site in 2020, developers Bruntwood and Trafford Council appointed Glenbrook a year ago to deliver both the residential offer and the public realm at Lumina Village.

In addition to the residential part, Bruntwood and Trafford Council have consented to deliver up to 200,000 sq ft of offices, a primary school and a 100-bedroom hotel.

Shannon Conway, residential director at Glenbrook, said: “This planning application marks the first stage in the delivery of Trafford’s wider Civic Quarter masterplan.

“We have worked closely with Bruntwood, Trafford Council and our design team to ensure that the type of homes we are creating will meet the market need now and in the future, as well as delivering a new public realm based on age 8-80 principles that will benefit both the new and existing community.

“Subject to a positive outcome at committee, we aim to start on site in Q2 2023.”
