Architects: Murray O’Laoire

The 101 dwelling units on the 2.74 ha (6.77 acres) site provides for a density of 36.86 units per hectare (14.92 units per acre).

The mixture of dwelling sizes and designs address a number of housing needs and the design of the various house types is contemporary and of a very high standard. The overall development provides for 19.9% public open space, which is overlooked, exceeds council requirements as set out in the 1999 County Development Plan and is of genuine amenity value.

The site layout facilitates traffic calming and prioritises the safety of the residents
