The scheme provides 124 one and two-bedroom apartments with 47% affordable provision. With generous on-site private parking provision, the development is set in four independent blocks, and careful design has produced a scheme which gives all apartments riverside views. High-quality design and finishes complement the desirable waterside location.

Given the complex nature of the site, Chetwoods worked with key stakeholders and local parties on the development of the emerging scheme through a series of workshops, incorporating comments and concerns into the design where possible.

The scheme was displayed and discussed at a public consultation exercise held at Lea Valley Ice Centre, a collaborative approach that led to the scheme being granted planning permission.
