Overview:
The Phase 1B Infrastructure works comprised construction of an adoptable highway and
associated drainage and lighting as well as associated earthworks and retaining walls,
installation of a flood bund around an existing allotment and creation of flood alleviation
areas (swales and ponds). These works included significant earthworks re-profiling and
raising the land to created development platforms for mixed residential and commercial
end use.
The site had been subjected to a series of potentially contaminative historical industries
including mills, sewage works, dye works and land filling. A number of potential features
of archaeological interest, mainly bridges, former mill buildings and industrial activities
had been identified on and around the site.
