Landscape and Ecology
The sites detailed proposal delivers enhanced landscape and ecological throughout and result in a development which exceeds local planning policy by providing in excess of 20% biodiversity net gain. This includes the provision of a substantial area of public open space to the north of the Lambrok Stream. New succession planting will be provided as part of a comprehensive landscaping scheme, which over time will replace the existing declining trees on the south side of the Lambrok with more appropriate replacement native species.
