At South-East Faversham the Duchy of Cornwall bring 30 years of experience in successful strategic placemaking aiming to address housing shortages in Faversham and the surrounding area by providing beautiful, high-quality and affordable homes, as well as jobs, shops, work and leisure spaces, new educational facilities and green space for everyone to enjoy in a way which will complement the unique historic character and identity of Faversham.

Working closely with lead masterplanners & landscape designers Ben Pentreath and Kim Wilkie and a wider team of specialist consultants, Clague Architects were delighted to be asked to assist on the detailed design of some of the initial phase of this hybrid planning application. Our focus was on Parcels 1A & 1B which includes some 115 new homes immediately adjacent to the historic A2 along with retail and commercial space and supporting infrastructure. 

We have relished the opportunity to work with this distinguished client and design team and to apply our own experience of many decades designing and building out sensitive residential & mixed-use schemes in a traditional manner within historic settlements across Kent. Proposals include over 250 meters of new-build frontage onto the south side of the A2 and the new mixed-use gateway area of retail & offices with apartments above, that will form the heart of the first phase of the community.
