| Barratt acquires site for a new £100m community in Harlow English Partnerships, the national regeneration agency, has chosen Barratt to build over 500 homes at Harlow, Essex - one of the key towns in the M11 corridor. Th 27-acre site lies on the northen edge of the town centre and is known as 'Harlow Gateway' due to its outstanding position alongside the main A414 road to Chelmsford and close to Harlow's mainline railway station. The land, which is redundant sports ground, was acquired from English Partnerships with outline planning consent for 530 homes worth around £100m. Barratt has now submitted an application to Harlow District Council for the first phase of building. Barratt is working with Essex-based Grafik Architects Ltd to create a range of houses and apartments to stylish contemporary designs specific to the Harlow Gateway site, which borders Fifth Avenue at Burnt Mill. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
