We want to be recognised as the nationsleading house builder, creating communities
where people aspire to live.
Proposed new vehicular access into the site which has beendetailed designed by I-Transport to ensure the required visibilityis achieved to meet the requirements of Leeds City Council.
The existing building faade is going to be retained and
sensitively converted to create a small block of new apar tments.
The existing stone chimney will be retained and set in an
attractive new area of public open space.
The majority of existing mature trees are going to be retained
and respected. Only the trees that will be affected by theremediation works and the new access will need to be removed.
An attractive green and ecological corridor has been createdthat wraps around the perimeter of the site.
The green corridor allows safe pedestrian connectivity betweengreen spaces and to existing public footpaths.

New dwellings to the Green Lane frontage will be designedsympathetically and to relate to the existing properties adjacent.
