Branston Edge

Life at Branston Edge comes with a softer, more natural setting from the start. The development sits alongside Bass Millennium Wood, while landscaped areas within the neighbourhood bring trees, planting and seasonal colour into everyday views.

Across the development, 47 new trees and 179 metres of hedgerow help shape a greener backdrop. Around the play area and open areas, shrubs, grasses and bulbs, add texture through the seasons, helping the surroundings feel established as the neighbourhood grows.

Nature is considered in the details too. Bee bricks, swift bricks and hedgehog highways support local wildlife, while clay and reed insect boxes form part of the wider ecological plan. It all contributes to a setting that feels connected to the landscape around it, not set apart from it.

Living at Branston Edge means having everyday places close by. Burton upon Trent is just a short drive away for shops, cafés and essentials, while local schools and sports facilities make day to day routines feel more straightforward.

For travel further afield, the train station offers regular connections to nearby towns and cities, and the A38 is close by for simple road journeys. Whether it is the school run, commuting to work or heading out for the weekend, getting where you need to be does not take much effort.

It is a setting that gives you breathing room at home, while keeping you well connected when you need it.

Families at Branston Edge have a good choice of schools nearby, helping keep the school run simple and supporting children through every stage.

Childhood at Branston Edge comes with more freedom to roam than most. With a play area in the neighbourhood and woods nearby, children have space to make up their own games, head out with friends and burn off energy without needing to go far.

Places like Branston Water Park and the canal paths are within easy reach, giving families even more room to walk, cycle and explore together. It means weekends do not always need planning, because fresh air and a change of scene are often just a short trip away.

Back at home, the play area offers a safe and welcoming place for younger children to spend time outdoors, while parents can relax knowing that fun, friendship and space to play are all close by.

Branston Edge is part of a wider plan for the area, bringing new facilities and everyday conveniences over time. As the neighbourhood grows, plans include a local centre with shops, cafés and services, giving you more reasons to stay close to home.

New walking and cycling routes will help link homes with green areas and local facilities, making it easier to get around without always needing the car. Community spaces and future services are also planned, helping shape a neighbourhood that feels more complete as the years go by.
