This is a crucial stage in completing Pride in Camp Hill's vision for the area and secures the delivery of the final piece of the jigsaw that all partners have been working with residents on, over the past few years.
The final phase - Bluebell, named by a local resident - is set to transform Camp Hill and breathe new life into the area. It will include 820 homes built over the next 10 to 12 years. On completion the development will feature a high street, green open spaces, open views across Whittleford Park and link naturally to the rest of the project.

The first phase of Bluebell will comprise one and two bedroom coach houses as well as two, three and four-bedroom houses. AWM is investing £4.9 million in this phase of the development, as part of a total investment of £13.5 million in Camp Hill. And a total of £8.2 million will eventually be invested into the scheme through the HCA’s National Affordable Housing Programme, further to £3.1 million already invested by the Agency in the wider Camp Hill area.
A sales office will be opened in November and the aim is for show homes to be ready by April 2010.
Chris Egan, Pride in Camp Hill Project Manager said: ''Securing the development agreement is a huge milestone for the project. We have a shared vision of transforming not just buildings but the way people feel about Camp Hill - we can look forward to high quality housing that will stand the test of time, that is energy efficient and of new high quality designs.
''We have already began site clearance work on the ground; residents will soon see exciting changes as the development gets underway.''
