The landscape is in sync with the ironmongery and external timber feature doors. The project received £2.5 million grant from the HCA, under the scope of its Kickstart programme and National Affordable Housing Programme.
Civic Society Award 2012 noted:
“The design addresses the steeply sloping site very well. The development incorporates a range of materials and provides a pleasant living environment. The re-creation and enhancement of Stonewell Lane is a particularly strong feature.”
