As well as homes, the scheme will see the construciton of a market square, a two-form entry primary school and a community centre, alongside public parks, woodland and allotment gardens.

Andy Hill, chief executive of £600m turnover Hill Group, said Marleigh was a “landmark” development which will transform East Cambridge. He said: “As two family run, Cambridge companies, we share the same vision and commitment to building inspiring and sustainable communities, which will stand the test of time.”

Richard Howe, managing director of Marshall Group Properties, said the first phase of the scheme was already well underway, and that the first residents of Marleigh will move into their new homes soon.
