The proposals present an opportunity to create a high quality, landscape-led addition to the town that integrates with the existing green infrastructure and the surrounding context of Shipston-on-Stour. The provision for new recreational areas and open space will promote healthy and active lifestyles for the existing and future residents of the town.
The proposals have been informed by a thorough analysis of the Site, its constraints, characteristics and opportunities. A summary of the constraints and opportunities are presented below, to be considered in the development of a masterplan.
