- Reinstated canal basin and development of new high-density residential quarter
- Stourport would be a very different town without its canal. Whereas today the way in which the town
turns its back on the canals seems to be an act of deliberate neglect of an attractive asset, two hundred
years ago canals were a key part of the industrial engine. Polite commerce and smarter society would naturally turn away from those unsightly activities that clustered around the basins
- The development provides 144 units, 32 houses and 94 apartments (1 & 2 bed) including 18 affordable dwellings representing a density of 85 units per hectare. The scheme achieved a successful (and applauded) planning consent in 2004. Boughton Butler is currently working with an enabling developer to reinstate the basin, decontaminate the land and undertake the planning conditions
