Cala Homes (West) have submitted plans to Falkirk Council for a residential-led mixed-use development at Gilston Farm, Polmont.
The proposed development will provide around 500 homes (including 25% affordable housing), large areas of parkland and a new neighbourhood centre with potential for retail and community use. At the heart of the development will be a major central park and attractive wetland area, linked to a network of other parks, sport and play spaces. This will provide recreational space for the whole community to enjoy and encourage active travel.
A series of planning and technical applications have been made, with a view to starting infrastructure works that will deliver first homes in late 2025.

This proposed sustainable neighbourhood will provide large areas of parkland and a new neighbourhood centre with potential for retail and community use. Just under half (49 per cent) of the site will be retained as open space. At the heart of the development will be a major central park and attractive wetland area, linked to a network of other parks, sport and play spaces. This will provide recreational space for the whole community to enjoy and encourage active travel.
Developer contributions approaching £8million will go towards local education, affordable housing, healthcare facilities; and transport infrastructure - including upgrades to junction 4 of the M9, local junction improvements; new and improved bus services making connections to Polmont Rail Station and the wider Falkirk area.
Cala is committed to delivering significant benefits to the local community through its Community Pledge programme, supporting local groups and initiatives, bolstering local employers and businesses, appointing local employees and ultimately providing regionalised value to communities.
