Eildon goes back to the drawing board for Coldstream development

Derelict land on Duns road in Coldstream is earmarked to bring much needed affordable new homes to the local area.
Eildon Housing is withdrawing a previous planning application following its ongoing discussions with the local community and Scottish Borders Council.
A new planning application will be resubmitted early Summer 2025 with revised design proposals.
Nile Istephan, Eildon’s chief executive, said: “It is extremely important to us that we provide housing that is suitable and meets the needs of the local communities we serve across the Scottish Borders. We welcome feedback on our proposed housing developments and as part of the planning application process, there will be two public consultations prior to new plans being resubmitted.
“Following discussion with Scottish Borders Council and feedback from the local community, we have decided to revisit our plans to ensure we strike a balance in providing the right homes for the area and regenerating this site with sound placemaking principles.
More details on the public consultations will be communicated through Scottish Borders Council in due course.
