Natural Site Benefits

The site offers a range of physical and social opportunities that will benefit our proposals of a residential development to include the retention of Lingfield House and its beautifully landscaped gardens. Perhaps most importantly, there is the opportunity to create a truly sustainable development; something very different in making a place that people will actually use and want to experience in such close proximity to the village centre.

Indigenous hedging and ecological pathways
