About
Land surrounding Bridge End Farm forms part of the Guildford Borough Council Local Plan allocation (Policy A35) for up to 2,000 homes at the former Wisley Airfield. The land surrounding Bridge End Farm is expected to provide up to 200 new homes and recreational natural green space known as SANG (Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspace).
A design team, including masterplanners JTP, has been appointed by the landowner, to draw up an outline planning application for the site, with an anticipated submission date in late February 2023.
Background
The ‘Former Wisley Airfield’ site is located to the north-east of Ockham village. The landowner has worked collaboratively alongside the other two landowners, Taylor Wimpey (TW) and Hallam Land Management (HLM), on the ‘Former Wisley Airfield’ allocation.
The wider allocation site has three interconnected neighbourhoods each with their own distinct characters, separated by generous green corridors.
The community engagement outlined in this website refers specifically to the land surrounding Bridge End Farm. TW and HLM have previously led public consultation events for the wider allocation sites which can be found online.

Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspace (SANG)
A Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspace (SANG) is a recreational site, created to attract residents of new developments away from designated sites that are protected for their valuable ecology and are sensitive to recreational activities such as dog walking.
The land surrounding Bridge End Farm proposes approximately 5.4 ha of SANG to be available for use by people moving into the new housing, as well as the existing local community. The land will be managed as a semi-natural area with plenty of space for a range of informal recreational activities and will be actively managed for the enjoyment of, and use by local people and families.
