We enjoy the challenge presented by large complex projects. They often combine mixed uses with multiple stakeholders and difficult site constraints. After several years of carefully developing our proposals for the Forth Goods Yard site in Newcastle, we are pleased to see the planning application lodged. The equally challenging Bradford City Village project has received planning consent this month, with a start on site planned for later this year.

Forth Goods Yards, Newcastle

A planning application has been lodged for the former Forth Goods Yard site, an underutilised and inaccessible gateway site into the City, located on the approach to Central Station and with views to the River Tyne. The scheme will deliver 514 BTR apartments and townhouses across two buildings, alongside a new long stay station linked MSCP. The historic Scotswood Branch line will be opened to the public as an elevated ‘high line’ linear park alongside extensive public realm connecting existing and future developments at grade level.

Planning Consent in Bradford

We are delighted to announce that Bradford City Village has secured planning approval. This landmark regeneration project will eventually deliver around 1,000 new homes, with the first phase consisting of 97 affordable homes. With sustainability, community and low-carbon living at its core, the scheme will introduce new parks and public spaces, transforming underused city centre land into a vibrant, green neighbourhood at the heart of the city.
