Well St, CGI

Location: Coventry

Planning permission has been granted for the development of 40 apartments and 4,500 sq ft of ground-floor retail and office space, on the corner of Well Street and Bishop Street in Coventry. The site is in the heart of the city centre and is one of the few remaining sites that has remained in temporary use since Word War II.

The site faces onto The Burges Conservation Area which is being restored by Historic Coventry Trust as part of the Government’s Historic High Streets Programme. With this in mind, the scheme has been designed to provide a transition from the historic Burges area, including the Grade I Listed Old Grammar School, to the new high-rise student schemes to the north.

Location: Coventry

Abbotts Park is planned to be a new, sustainable residential district in Coventry city centre, connecting communities through the creation of the new linear park that will be at the heart of the new scheme. With funding from the West Midlands Combined Authority, we have invested in providing the landscaping first, creating a new eco- corridor in the heart of the city for the wider community to enjoy.

Planning permission has been granted for this scheme which includes:

Up to 700 homes, including 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments, duplexes and townhouses

A new local centre providing a convenience retail, office and amenity offering

20% affordable housing

Exemplar sustainability credentials increasing carbon efficiency by 40% above building regulations requirements

A landscape-led strategy, hiding car parking underneath the buildings allowing the new linear park to flow through the site

Cycle parking, access to a residents car club, and a green travel plan

The new Linear Park with the recreated Radford Brook and over 1,000 trees and saplings planted, runs through the centre of the scheme and connects under the ring road to the City Centre. The park is complete and is open to the public. It includes a children’s play area, a climbing wall and a feature ‘Zen Arch’ structure that crosses the brook.

Location: Royal Leamington Spa

CDP was appointed by Warwick District Council in December 2017 to deliver an ambitious, ‘place shaping’ master plan that is transformational; viable; fundable; deliverable; sustainable, and of high-quality design.

Setting out how the “Old Town” area could become a bright, vibrant and distinct destination and attraction for the district. Key considerations to be given to fusing together the existing rich historic architecture with a modern twist.

The draft masterplan was delivered in November 2018 and following a period of consultation, CDP presented a final masterplan in Spring 2019.   The final sign-off was given to this project in November 2019. The first phase of the Creative Quarter regeneration is now complete with the redevelopment of Spencer Yard, which includes the restoration of the derelict Grade II Listed United Reform Church. Three buildings in Spencer Yard have been refurbished to create a series of creative offices. All three buildings are occupied – read more here  Spencer Yard and the United Reform Church

We are now progressing with plans for the development the fire damaged Stoneleigh Arms, Clemens Street  and Old School, Court Street, to create mixed-use creative spaces.  Planning Approval was granted in December 2023 and works are underway.

We are continuing to work with Warwick District Council on the next phases of the regeneration.
