It offers a mix of 842 one, two, three and four-bedroom homes. Boleyn Ground’s name is derived from the area’s royal connection, as Anne Boleyn (one of Henry VIII’s six wives) was rumoured to have lived in a house that stood next to the ground called Boleyn Castle. The development has been designed to maximise green areas – all homes will include private outdoor space, as well as access to communal gardens and landscaping. There is also a direct walkway to Priory Park behind the development.
