Project Overview

The site was a former industrial area and a gas storage area, which was previously used for employment purposes. The buildings had become extremely dilapidated and unsuitable when considering the surrounding context which was primarily residential. The project therefore comprised a regeneration scheme whereby the buildings were proposed for demolition, and replaced by 110 homes, including provision of affordable housing and public open space.

Our Role

Grass Roots Planning successfully negotiated the application through the planning process including negotiating the level of affordable housing on site, and other contributions towards an improved public transport scheme. The application received an approval for full planning permission in December 2015; on Redrow's behalf we discharged conditions and the site was completed in 2018.
