Southern Gateway update
The Southern Gateway to One Horton Heath will form an attractive entrance into the development providing a strong sense of identity.
We have always been committed to a high quality of design and our inclusion of the local community in developing our designs is a key principle of the project. Whilst there is general agreement that the Southern Gateway needs to be strong we’ve been listening to local feedback and it is clear that there is not community support for the 6-storey building or its appearance.
As a result, an alternative proposal for the Southern Gateway will be designed including a reduction in height and an alternative appearance. Revised plans will be formally submitted to the Local Planning Authority who will undertake a further public consultation.
