Scheme Details
The site was previously used for sporting activities and had a football pitch situated on it. The site is located at the rear of existing properties on Ferrars Road and is accessed via a road between existing homes. The site also adjoins an industrial site and the new road will provide access to a further industrial unit next to the site. There is a requirement for public art that has been approved by Sheffield City Council and has been designed by a local artist. This will be installed at the entrance to the site. The site also requires a huge balancing pond to offset any flooding risk and will become a feature of the site.
