36 Heritage Gate, Coed Darcy SUMMARY 04

4.1 CONCLUSION The proposed development presents the opportunity to create a characterful new development consisting of up to 140 new homes at the heart of an exciting new residential context.

All aspects of the proposed development have been given careful consideration following a comprehensive analysis and assessment of the site’s constraints and opportunities as well as its wider context.

The design and development layout directly responds to the site’s assets and utilises the existing topography to provide interest, variety and character.

The proposal is a key part of the Coed Darcy development, closing the gap between existing residential development to the east and the proposed future phases to the west and the mixed retail area to the North.
