The plan allocates two sites in Wymondham for a total of 150 additional dwellings to 2038. With the major housing commitment and employment expansion set out in Wymondham’s Area Action Plan, this means that the town will grow by around 2,600 homes, along with strategic employment growth at Browick Road.
