Great Yarmouth Borough Council is consulting on proposals to redevelop Beach Coach Station car park with approximately 94 high quality affordable homes, associated access, open space and landscaping.

Great Yarmouth Borough Council has commissioned Broadland Development Services to provide development support in a strategic initiative to help provide more affordable homes in the Great Yarmouth area.

Please note that the consultation is currently on hold.

If you have any queries, please contact Adam Ballard.

Broadland Housing Association is providing Development Services to Homes for Wells, to progress proposals to develop land on Two Furlong Hill that’s been allocated in Wells-next-the-Sea’s Neighbourhood Plan for affordable housing.

Homes for Wells has commissioned Broadland Housing Association to undertake a housing need assessment, to identify the local housing need in Wells and adjoining parishes of Holkham, Wighton and Warham.

Homes for Wells is a community land trust and who’s involvement restricts new affordable homes to remain affordable in perpetuity. Right-to-Buy doesn’t apply, and shared owners would only be able to purchase up to 80% equity shares.

Housing need in rural areas can often be hidden and not necessarily apparent to statutory authorities or the wider community. An individual or household is in housing need, when they require separate or alternative accommodation and are unable to rent or buy housing generally available on the open market.

The lack of suitable housing can also impact on local businesses and services being able to recruit and retain staff. Broadland Housing Association is also reaching out to local businesses and services with this business housing need assessment on accommodation needed to recruit and retain staff.

Property tenures being considered for the proposed development include:

• Social Rent – low-cost, government-subsidised housing provided by housing associations to people on low incomes.
• Shared Ownership – allowing a household to buy a share in a home and pay rent on the portion retained by a Housing Association.
• Rent to Buy – where a household pays a lower rent and uses the saving from open market, to save for a deposit to purchase the property as shared ownership.

Please find below the Business Housing Need Assessment to complete online. Alternatively, you can find a word document or PDF format attached to the bottom of this page that can be filled in and sent to adam.ballard@broadlandgroup.org.

Wells Housing Implementation Group has approached Broadland Housing Association, a Norfolk based registered provider for development agency support to deliver approximately 45 affordable dwellings on land allocated in the Neighbourhood Plan on Two Furlong Hill. 

Broadland Housing shall be undertaking a Housing Need Assessment to consider the types of properties Wells requires. This involves asking households to complete a questionnaire on their housing need, which can include members of the community who used to live in Wells but needed to move away to find suitable accommodation.

Businesses and services will also be contacted for staffing requirements that aren’t able to be met due to the lack of suitable housing in the Town. 

Anyone wanting to discuss their personal or business-related housing needs are welcome to drop-into Wells’ Library to speak with a member of Broadland Housing between 10:00am – 18:30pm on Wednesday 22^nd April 2026. 

Or call Adam Ballard to arrange a visit on 01603 750274.

Wiveton – Call for land

• Affordable: Comprising affordable rent and shared ownership
• Market sales: Approximately a third of the overall development will be sold on the open market, to generate surplus funds to cross-subsidise the affordable homes.

Shared ownership and market homes will initially be marketed to the local community.

Land needs to be in Wiveton adjacent to existing properties. The amount housing associations can pay for land is above agricultural but below market values.

If you have potentially suitable land that you would like Broadland Housing Association to consider, please contact Adam Ballard.
