The Croydon Council housing intensification policy guided DA and the successful design team for the 7 unit apartment scheme for The Purple Pepper Partnership.

The application led by WSPA exploited the significant site topography while respecting the local street pattern and mature tree canopy.

DA provided landscape and tree protection advice in a scheme that included communal allotments and play space.

We continue to work with WSPA on a number of projects across the south-east in the residential/ leisure and private sectors.

Special Battle – East Sussex

With the revised NPPF placing greater protection within AONB any proposed development must demonstrate ‘exceptional circumstances’ to win planning approval.

Battle Abbey School is an established boarding school requiring local indoor sport facilities and has an option to acquire a suitable south-west facing site on the edge of the existing town settlement.

The sports hall proposal by ATP architects with a curved amorphic green roof and parking area set into the terraced design has received favourable community support and a detailed application to Rother DC is anticipated before the new year. DA has undertaken the landscape impact assessment with supporting strategy.

DA is also working on other sensitive planning sites in southern UK.
