Lower Falinge

An update for our customers in Lower Falinge - updated Autumn 2025

In March, we told you that we planned to demolish the six empty maisonette blocks (Ollerton, Newstead, Romsey, Quinton, Ullesthorpe, and Vaynor) in Lower Falinge, as well as the former RSPCA buildings and the former car wash on High Street, within the next 12 months. This will make way for the development of new family homes across a larger site that we will work with the community on designing.

Demolition work on the RSPCA and car wash sites was completed in the summer. The sites have been temporarily grassed while we work with you, our customers, the wider community and our partners to design the future plans for Lower Falinge. It’s important that current and future residents have a say in how Lower Falinge takes shape in this exciting next phase of providing new homes and spaces across the community.

We will provide a further update on future work happening in Lower Falinge as soon as we are able to do so. We look forward to working with you on this next phase of the regeneration of Lower Falinge.
