Currently in the planning process, the proposal is for 84 houses and flats within a development that prioritises green recreation spaces and pedestrian permeability. A large green is the focus of the site, fronted by rows of terraced houses. A wide 'greenway' runs through the site from the green, providing car free walking spaces amongst wild planting and swales and connecting to pedestrian routes out of the site. Car routes and parking are centralised as far as possible to minimise the impact of cars on the shared streets and lanes around the site. The houses are designed to be contemporary while referencing the materials and forms of surrounding streets.
