The development proposals incorporates a new area of parkland, within the eastern field. This will include new football pitches, alongside new walking routes, a play area and other open spaces for people to enjoy. New football pitches are proposed, in order that the village residents and the local football team, have access to a sporting facility which is free to use.

Below, the project team have designed three potential options for the layout of these new facilities and open space.

Extensive landscaping is envisaged throughout the scheme and existing hedgerows and trees along the sites boundaries will be retained and strengthened with new planting. The location of the proposed parkland and the inclusion of buffers within the design, will reduce the impact on existing residents.

The new homes, will be arranged around green corridors, swales and tree-lined streets. This will break-up the blocks of new development and ensure a lower level of density, which is sympathetic to the character of the village.

The images below provide examples of this.
