Residential Development of Former Gas Works
The site was purchased for residential redevelopment with a scheme comprised of 176 units of mixed “market” and “affordable” dwellings, together with private gardens and open landscaped areas. Proposals included; adoptable access roads, cycle and pedestrian access linking with the nearby parkland, retained woodland to be enhanced as part of the wider parkland, and the “opening up” of a culverted stream that runs the entire length of the site to create a landscape feature which would be designed and managed to enhance its ecological diversity and to increase wildlife populations
