Carter Jonas masterplanning, planning and development teams have acted on behalf of promoter and developer Shaptor Capital over a three-year period to progress proposals for a new garden village scale development close to Canterbury and Faversham in the Swale Borough of Kent. The 1,900+ home settlement will sit adjacent to two existing villages, Boughton-Under-Blean and Dunkirk, with direct access provided via a new junction off the A2 highway.
