About English Rural
English Rural is a specialist non-profit rural housing association, established in 1991. We only build and manage homes in village locations, principally across the south of England. All the homes we build are community-led and designed to benefit local people. We are also one of the leading national advocates on affordable rural housing issues, with HRH The Princess Royal as our Patron.
Generally speaking, we develop our homes on ‘rural exception sites’. This enables us to ensure they are affordable and secured for local people – forever. Our residents and the local community are at the heart of what we do and we only work at the invitation of the Parish Council.
Affordable doesn’t mean poor quality. Our homes are designed and built to high standards, usually using local design features and ensuring that their environmental impact is minimal. We build beautiful homes that villages can be proud of and our homes consistently win awards for design and construction.

What Is Proposed?
We are proposing to design, build and manage a small development in Peaslake, of eight social rented and two shared ownership homes for local people. The scheme would comprise the following homes:
4 x one bedroom flats
3 x two bedroom houses
1 x three bedroom house
2 x two bedroom house (for shared ownership)
The latest housing needs assessment has identified the above homes will meet the housing need demand and provide affordable homes for those on the register.
