Orchard Grove from above, July 2024

A big milestone for the new community, this month Orchard Grove primary school has been completed and the finished building has been handed over by the contractors to the academy trust and local authority.
In a ceremony to mark the completion of the project, the state-of-the-art new facility has now become part of the Blackdown Education Partnership, with schools in Somerset and Devon.
Just in time for summer, Orchard Grove’s first public park has opened. The new open space has a place for children to play, along with picturesque planting and places to relax. Known as ‘Pocket Park’, this is the first of many open and accessible green spaces within the development.
