About the area
Growing Community
This is an exemplary scheme, which achieves design quality of the highest standard, both in terms of its masterplanning, and at the level of individual houses. The scheme responds to a site with complicated constraints, taking account of both the desirable qualities of traditional housing layouts, and of current thinking about design to optimise orientation relative to the path of the sun. The houses show a level of sophistication rare in mass housing in this country, with architectural expression which is refreshingly assured. A clear vision of the character of place, has been bolstered by rigorous attention to detail in the handling of refuse and recycling. The environmental design is strong, and we commend the way in which embodied energy has been considered as well as energy in use.

In partnership with The Homes and Communities Agency and the borough of Telford & Wrekin, we have made a firm commitment to fill in the gaps missing from modern living. Like safe places for children to play, community participation, affordable and eco-friendly high quality homes. All the important bits.
