A hybrid planning application for 450 homes, a forest parkland and a training facility for Preston North End Football Club was granted planning approval on the 11th August 2017. Randall Thorp provided masterplanning and LVIA services as part of a multi-disciplinary team of planners, engineers and architects.

Randall Thorp’s knowledge and expertise in masterplanning large scale new settlements has led to the approval of this 2,350 home extension to Cambourne. The application was approved by South Cambridgeshire District Council on the 11th January 2017. The approval was "based on the argument that delivering the larger site would result in a more comprehensive and sustainable form of development."
