TYSON Fury’s posh neighbours face plans for a new airport car park near their quaint village.
Plans have been lodged for the new 1,424-space parking area by Manchester Airport.
Airport bosses want to transform the area occupied by old greenhouses around a mile from the airport – which was once used by a third party car park company.
It is a 4 minute drive from the posh village of Styal – where boxing legend Fury grew up and where he has a £2.5million mansion.
Residents have filed objects since the plans were first lodged in December, saying they are “deeply concerned”.
The new area is on the Boundary Farm site located on land west of Styal Road close to the eastern edge of Manchester Airport.
And area already has a staff car park, and a nearby exisiting car park site – JetParks3.
It is also is a stone’s throw from Wilmslow, which is known for being dripping with bling, supercars and celebrities.
Styal is part of the trendy “Cheshire Triangle”, hugely popular with footballers, soap and reality stars such as Marcus Rashford, Wayne Rooney, William Roache and the cast of Real Housewives of Cheshire.
The airport acquired the site in 2024 and want to demolish the buildings on the site to replace it with an official car park site.
The new car park will include bus stops, barriers and pedestrian walkways.
Buses will run every 10 minutes from the site in a shuttle service to take passengers to-and-from their cars.
It was once used by a “meet and greet” car company were vehicles were left on the land and has been associated with the airport since the 90s.
The application has so far received four objections with one local complaining: “This development, as proposed, will have a severe and unacceptable impact on our residential amenity, the character of the area, and the Green Belt.
“Over decades, this site has been slowly transformed from a productive horticultural business into what is now proposed to be a high-density commercial car park.
“We are deeply concerned that this development prioritises airport capacity over the fundamental right of long-standing residents to enjoy their homes without excessive noise, light pollution, and loss of privacy.
“It is also completely contrary to the Net Zero 2050 target and the Climate Change Act 2008, both of which are vital for mitigating against the reduced quality of life of our children and grandchildren.”
Four nearby properties all jointly raised concerns about residents’ safety, noise and light pollution, as the car park will be operating 24 hours a day.
The objection said: “Many of us have lived here for decades. We see ourselves as part of a long-term relationship with the airport.
“Decisions taken now will shape that relationship for years to come.”
It added: “We want to be clear from the outset: we are not opposed to the airport’s growth…
“This current proposal, however, feels qualitatively different — not because development is occurring, but because of its immediate proximity to established homes and the scale of operational impact it may introduce.”
The council’s ecology department has recommended that the airport obtain a European Protected Species licence from Natural England with Great Crested Newts, reptiles, hedgehogs and birds being possibly affected.
While the local flood agency has objected as the “Risk Assessment and Drainage Strategy document contains insufficient detail”.
The planning proposal outlined that there would be “no significant increase in road traffic associated with the proposed development”.
It added that the area would also be landscaped with a combination of “new trees, hedging and low level grass”.
And the propsal says the airport is already engaging with the local community over the plan.
Fury purchased an eight-bed home in Styal in December 2020 for £2.5M, with plans to raze it to the ground and replace it with a six-bed pad complete with swimming pool, sauna, jacuzzi and cinema.
After a series of run-ins with the council, he was forced to withdraw the application after bats were found roosting in a loft while birds flocking to his pond and fruit trees were a potential hazard to nearby jets.
Another council department wanted him to move his proposed pad – for the sake of an oak tree.
Instead, a watered-down version was approved with meant the current dwelling remains, plus three extensions and a basement.
Since then, Fury has relocated to the Isle of Man.
The Sun has contacted Manchester Airport for comment.
