Wells Lane, Ascot
This residential development seeks planning consent in greenbelt under very special circumstances, in that it will ensure full remediation of a badly mismanaged and environmentally harmful waste transfer facility. The landscape design integrates with the rural and wooded context. Existing trees are retained where possible and many new trees will be planted. The central lane has an informal character, being curvaceous and lined with hornbeam hedges. The introduction of new woodland edge habitat will enhance biodiversity. Each garden is carefully designed in terms of sunny aspects, privacy, useable space and views. The landscape design creates a great deal of commercial value in the form of an attractive, green, quiet and family friendly place to live.
