Planning approval granted for new 89-home scheme in Fishtoft

A major residential scheme has secured detailed planning permission for 89 new homes on land off Gaysfield Road in Fishtoft, Lincolnshire. The project covers roughly nine acres and is positioned to serve growing demand for housing close to Boston and its surrounding employment centres.

Construction is scheduled to begin in 2026 and will deliver a mix of two-, three-, and four-bedroom properties, with around 20% allocated to affordable rent and shared ownership. Open-market homes are expected to start from about £185,000.

Plans include community green space, landscaping, and a play area. The developer will provide £400,000 in Section 106 contributions to support local education, NHS provision, and travel initiatives.

Allen Marshall, Regional Managing Director at Gleeson Homes, said, “We’re proud to be bringing Pilgrims Gate to Fishtoft. This development reflects our ongoing commitment to building homes that are not only high-quality and great value, but also rooted in the needs of the local community. We’ve listened carefully to feedback and made thoughtful adjustments to ensure the scheme complements its surroundings and delivers real value to local people.”

The scheme’s design and infrastructure have been shaped through stakeholder consultation to support long-term sustainability and integrate effectively with the surrounding area.
