Open space is not pushed to the edge here. It sits at the centre of the neighbourhood.
More than 7 acres of public open space run through Montgomery Place, shaped by a natural watercourse that gives the layout a more open feel. Around 90 metres of new footpaths link homes to green areas and a play area set within the landscape, making it easy to head out for a walk, meet neighbours or let children burn off some energy without getting in the car.
Landscaped basins help manage rainwater in a simple, practical way, and to the south of the site a protected badger habitat remains in place to support local wildlife. Planting across the development will help the neighbourhood settle in over time.
Football, rugby and tennis clubs sit right next door, so training nights and weekend matches do not mean extra journeys across town. It makes staying active part of the week rather than something that needs planning. When the game finishes, home is only a short walk away.
