Planning Application - Paisley Dykebar Hospital, Paisley

Cala Homes (West) have successfully secured planning permission by planning appeal, as part of a Consortium of Developers with Barratt Homes and Bellway Homes for surplus land at Dykebar Hospital in Paisley.

The new development of 603 homes, 171 by Cala, will deliver a high-quality residential development on the edge of Paisley, which will provide the local community with essential housing options for a variety of households ranging from one to five bedroom homes in apartments, townhouses, terraced, semi-detached and detached styles.

The unique feature of this development is that almost half (43%) of the site will be retained as open space and woodland with biodiversity enhancement at its heart.  The plans will also increase native tree planting and landscaping; create new play facilities; improve foot and cycle connections and the local road network; as well as making financial contributions towards local schools.

The site was allocated within the Renfrewshire Local Plan 2014 and the Renfrewshire Local Development Plan 2019 for residential development of 620 homes and the proposals were recommended for approval by Renfrewshire’s Planning Authority in 2021.

Ongoing Updates – September 2024

Survey work and investigations are continuing to be carried out to prepare for the acquisition of the site and the start of development, targeted for 2025.
