Latest News From the Campaign

We met with Tim Roca MP this morning to discuss Adlington Park and the concerns being raised locally.

We made clear that we are firmly opposed to the proposed Adlington Park development.

As discussions about Adlington Park are now taking place across different groups, organisations and online platforms, we want to take a moment to remind people about the purpose of Supporters of the Adlington Greenbelt (SOTAG) and how we operate.

Supporters of the Adlington Greenbelt stand with SANT and support their statement regarding Adlington Park.

We stopped Adlington New Town by standing together. But the threat to our Greenbelt has not gone away.

Adlington Park would see 1,275 homes built on prime agricultural land, with many of the same concerns we had with the New Town around roads, schools, healthcare, water, sewage, flooding, drainage and wildlife.

We only have until Monday 28 September to have our say.

MP for Macclesfield Tim Roca has responded to the Adlington Park proposals today on Facebook with a video from the site. He is not convinced by the plans stating that he has significant concerns about the development.

We attended the Belport consultation yesterday hoping to see meaningful progress and new information. Unfortunately, it felt largely like a box-ticking exercise, with little that was genuinely new or that addressed the concerns residents have repeatedly raised.

It’s a Community Fun Day to mark the Community Planning Alliance Day of Action .

The announcement that Adlington has been removed from the government’s list of proposed new towns marks a significant and hard-fought victory for our community. This outcome is a testament to what can be achieved when people come together with a shared purpose and determination to protect the place they call home.

A new report from CPRE Cheshire raises serious concerns about proposals to build a large new town on Greenbelt land around Adlington.

The report questions the suitability of the site for a development of 14,000–20,000 homes, which could house up to 50,000 people—effectively creating a new town the size of nearby Macclesfield.
