Fortescue Road – planning application submitted

We are delighted to have been working, once again, with Goldcrest Land, this time submitting a planning application on a residential scheme in the London Borough of Merton.

Working closely with Goldcrest’s architects, we have developed a scheme that will transform a redundant Thames Water Depot, creating 74 new homes set in a landscape that places equal emphasis on ecology and amenity. The landscape features a series of residential gardens including play and productive gardens; a new ecological pocket park (contiguous with a local nature reserve and a ‘Site of Importance for Nature Conservation’); a pergola, approximately 100m. long, swathed in native and pollinator friendly species  and habitat features, such as bird and bat boxes and hibernacula ‘towers’.
