We were asked to prepare an Outline Planning Application for a characterful site to the west of Grantham. Our proposals needed to create a sensitive edge to the urban area whilst reflecting the rural character of the villages surrounding this attractive site.

We worked closely with landscape architects and the planning consultant to develop a careful and considered approach to the site layout. The site's hillside topography was seen as an opportunity to create an extension to the existing neighbourhood with a strong identity and sense of place that reflects its urban fringe location.

The style of the new dwellings will respect and reflect the local architecture surrounding Grantham, which forms a strong link to Lincolnshire’s rich rural history. Each house frames a small scale village green and at the same time forms an integral part of a larger landscape design.
