Site Overview and Potential

The Platt Bridge cluster comprises of 12 sites offering an excellent residential development opportunity in an already established residential area. Most of the sites consist of medium to large, regularly proportioned green open spaces.

The Platt Bridge cluster of sites presents multiple opportunities to deliver infill residential development on gap sites and repair missing frontages along the streets. The potential unit numbers across all 12 sites within this cluster sum to circa 250 dwellings, when considering the most appropriate dwelling type for this area.
