Urban Splash has been lined up to build more than 400 homes in the centre of Northstowe new town in Cambridgeshire.

The developer, which last week announced that Japanese housebuilding giant Sekisui House was taking a 35% stake in the business, said it would be building 406 homes for the project at its Alfreton, Derbyshire factory.

The architect on the scheme, located six miles from Cambridge, is Proctor & Matthews.
