The site of 5.07 Hectares in total comprises St Margarets Hospital Buildings and an area of open land to the East.
NC Architects were appointed by Mclean Homes SW Ltd. to produce a scheme for this site which would be acceptable to Swindon Borough Council initially on tendering for the site and then on their success in purchasing the site, in a Detailed Planning Application.
A small number of 2.5 –3 storey dwellings have been included at key focal points in the scheme including the central flats in the Square and also the Barrier Flats providing the noise barrier to the A419.
The scheme includes a large amount of open space to the North West which flows into the center of the scheme following the existing hedgerow and footpath / cycle way network. This has allowed for the retention of the majority of existing trees.
