This scheme proposes a mixture of residential and retail uses within Europe’s largest Registered Ancient Monument (Bishop’s Palace) including the part removal of the moat. The scheme includes a Tesco Express, three independent retail units and 60 residential apartments and houses within the conservation area. Two locally listed gatehouses are retained on the site and used as an entrance gateway to the mews development to the rear of the site.

The residential buildings pick up the scale and rhythm of adjacent buildings to complement the existing form of the area.
