Our Vision
A sustainable community driven by the principles of landscape-led development.
Landscape-led Development
The proposals are for a sustainable community driven by the principles of landscape-led development. We seek to create a self-contained community that would include easy access to jobs and community facilities.
While the design detail of buildings will emerge in the later detailed planning application, the principles of our vision will guide the development throughout its life.
Our Vision
- Landscape-led development with plentiful public green space; green networks and community village greens.
- Linked to but separate from the surrounding villages of Ripley and Send Marsh.
- Community focused: provision of community spaces and community gardens.
- Healthy living with substantial green and blue infrastructure.
- Active travel-focused with design that encourages walking, cycling and access to public transport.
- High-quality and sustainable homes and climate resilient planting.
- Homes with gardens, including opportunities to grow food.
- Design in-keeping with the identifiable local vernacular.
- Climate resilience, using zero-carbon and energy positive technology.
