The village, dubbed Gainsborough, has full capacity for 106 relocatable homes, however, it currently includes 59 one and two-bedroom homes.

The 9.4-hectare site is located 8 kilometres from Ipswich City centre and Ipswich Hospital.

Ipswich is a rapidly growing city with a population approaching 250,000 people.
