An artists' impression of the proposed new complex in Martlesham Picture: FEILDEN AND MAWSON - Credit: Archant Plans for a new retirement complex in the heart of Martlesham Heath are set to go-ahead - despite objections from community leaders. Developers McCarthy and Stone plan to build a total of 41 one- and two-bedroom apartments, as well as a public car park, on land just off The Square, in Eagle Way. But Martlesham Parish Council has objected to the development for a number of reasons with one of its concerns being that the creation of the new 43-space public car park on part of the old aerodrome runway would mean less spaces for drivers than currently.
