Carrow Quarter Masterplan

As part of the ongoing regeneration of the area around Norwich's Carrow Road football ground, our client sought to secure planning permission for a high-density, urban development designed around the principles of Passivhaus.

The buildings range in height between five and 10 storeys and are designed in a contemporary manner, reflecting the regeneration of the wider area. The density and scale of the development have allowed for much-needed housing in the city, including affordable homes for the local community.

The planning application outlined how the site occupied a very sustainable location, half a mile from Norwich train station and near local facilities including a leisure complex. The scheme includes car parking spaces, cycle storage and other facilities for the community to use. The final design includes landscaping and a riverside walk.

The application involved extensive consultation with key stakeholders including the general public, both prior to and following the submission of the application.

For a number of years, we have advised multiple clients on the redevelopment of vacant, former industrial land around Norwich City Football Club's Carrow Road stadium. Now complete, this mixed-use, riverside regeneration project has most recently delivered 323 homes for Broadland Housing, including more than 50% affordable housing, and provides a high-quality residential development for the residents of Norwich.
