This proposed masterplan has been developed following detailed technical assessments of the site and extensive collaboration between our consultants and environmental specialists.

The proposals seek to create a well-designed neighbourhood of 46 homes, including 50% affordable housing, arranged around a network of streets, green spaces and pedestrian routes.

Key design principles include:

• Creating an attractive and legible layout

• Providing a mix of homes suitable for families

• Delivering high-quality affordable housing

• Integrating green infrastructure throughout the development

• Retaining and strengthening landscape features

• Providing children’s play space

• Creating attractive streets and spaces

• Ensuring safe access and movement

• Supporting biodiversity and sustainability

The masterplan places landscape and open space at the heart of the development. Rather than creating a conventional housing estate, the proposals have been designed around green spaces and landscape corridors that connect different parts of the site and create a distinctive sense of place.

The layout also allows homes to benefit from attractive outlooks onto landscaped areas whilst helping soften views of development from surrounding areas. The result is a balanced and carefully planned neighbourhood that seeks to deliver much-needed housing whilst creating an attractive place to live.
