Industry consultancy Pegasus Group delivered the scheme, producing the design compliance statement, detailed layout, house types, including bespoke properties, and landscape design.

Edward Turner, Regional Director – Design and project manager, said: "We have a great working relationship with CALA Homes and were delighted to support them once again and pleased to have secured approval for our client.

"The house types and layout for Parcel H presented challenges to work within the Design Code and we created bespoke buildings to meet the criteria, which was very rewarding. We explored layout options to create an efficient layout that was easy to navigate, safe and secure."
