Construction Trends in Stafford
Stafford's former Guildhall Shopping Centre has been earmarked for a new market hall, mixed commercial space, townhouses and apartments, retaining the historic Chapel Tower as part of a wider town centre regeneration framework. Bellway has secured permission for 86 homes on the former RAF Hixon military hospital site, split between open-market and affordable housing with new green open space included. The council's housing target has risen sharply following recent national policy changes, with a new Local Plan now in early consultation for 2025 to 2045. Away from these schemes, established towns keep a steady flow of extensions and loft conversions.
