Lancaster Masterplan THE UNIVERSITY OF CUMBRIA LANCASTER CAMPUS MASTERPLAN 2014 - 2024 DRAFT REV 02 JOHN McASLAN + PARTNERS | JULY 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY John McAslan + Partners are pleased to present this Section 8 describes the phased development masterplan proposal for the University of Cumbria programme for the campus over a ten year period and (“The University”) Lancaster Campus (2012 – 2024). the budget. The University’s Lancaster Estate is situated to the Relevant Appendices are contained at the end of this south east of Lancaster and was the former home document including a proposed Zonal Masterplan. to the Bowerham Barracks (1880-1959) and St. Martin’s College of Education (established in 1964). The existing Barracks buildings (1880), The Harold Bridges Library (1976) and The Chapel (1967) contribute to the character of the campus today. The site has distinctive features including a large portion of green amenity space and mature landscape and from certain locations provides fi ne views across Lancaster reaching out to Morecambe Bay. The campus has several site constraints which will be addressed in this document including many poor, dysfunctional and unused buildings situated on the site. The University has asked John McAslan + Partners to create a new masterplan for the campus and expressed the need to clear redundant building stock at the site and consolidate the campus to reduce maintenance back log. In part this will provide future development opportunities for new purpose built academic and residential estate. An aspiration to raise future revenue for the University is considered in the masterplan through the proposal to dispose or redevelop surplus land, improving student accommodation to meet market expectations and through consolidation of the campus to reduce overall maintenance costs and energy use. Creating a sense of place is a primary theme within the masterplan. Revealing the existing character and heritage of the site will bring clarity to the campus. The masterplan presents opportunities to enhance and reinforce existing spaces, construct new landscape squares and social areas and create an improved environment in which to live, work and study. Section 1 of this document is an introduction to the masterplan, the University, the Bowerham Road campus and the brief. Section 2 presents the aims and objectives of the brief identifi ed by the University and delineates the key issues to be addressed within the brief. Contextual analysis undertaken is illustrated in Section 3 including the existing physical and statutory context. The historical development of the site from the establishment of the Bowerman Barracks to the present day is described in Section 4. Section 5 includes a summary of the campus analysis undertaken and existing site constraints to be addressed in the masterplan proposals. Within Section 6, the proposed masterplan is presented. The location of two disposal sites for future development opportunities are also illustrated along with on campus development plots for the University. Section 7 describes the key projects recommended within the masterplan in more detail. 2 | John McAslan + Partners | University of Cumbria - Lancaster Campus Masterplan | 2014 - 2024 | July 2014 CONTENTS 1.0 INTRODUCTION | 04 Campus Map | 04 2.0 AIMS & OBJECTIVES | 06 The Brief | 06 Briefing Diagram | 07 3.0 CONTEXT | 08 Physical Context - Location | 08 Physical Context - Site Photographs | 09 Strategic Context | 10 Strategic Context - Referencing Documents | 11 4.0 HISTORY | 12 Site Development 1870 - Present | 12 5.0 CAMPUS ANALYSIS | 14 Existing Pedestrian Routes and Public Squares | 14 Existing Vehicular Routes and Parking| 15 Existing Amenity Space | 16 Existing Building Condition | 17 Existing Primary Building Uses | 18 Areas of Opportunity | 19 Existing Site Constraints | 20 6.0 MASTERPLAN | 22 Masterplan - Concept | 22 Masterplan - Proposed Masterplan 2014 - 2024 | 24 Response to the Brief | 26 Proposed Pedestrian Routes and Public Realm | 28 Proposed Vehicular Access | 29 Proposed Demolition and Disposal | 30 Proposed Primary Building Uses | 31 Proposed Development Plots | 32 7.0 KEY PROJECTS | 34 Three Academic Districts: Main Academic Quad | 34 Three Academic Districts: New Academic Avenue | 36 Three Academic Districts: Refurbishment of William Thompson Tower and New Public Square | 37 Landscape Proposals | 38 8.0 DELIVERY | 40 Phasing | 40 Budget | 46 9.0 APPENDICIES | 47 Appendix A - Planning Background and Zonal Masterplan | 47 July 2014 | University of Cumbria - Lancaster Campus Masterplan | 2014 - 2024 | John McAslan + Partners | 3 1.0 INTRODUCTION HISTORY OF THE INSTITUTION The University was formed in 2007 through the The number of full time education students Student accommodation for the Lancaster Campus amalgamation of St. Martin’s College, Cumbria projected for the 2014/15 academic year is 2,521 is on site with the exception of city centre Mill Hall Institute of Arts and the Cumbrian campuses of and predicted head count is 2,789 (in reference student accommodation.
