The Site

The redevelopment of this site responds to a number of known needs within the area. Blackhorse Road has long been recognised as being in need of regeneration. The site is semi-derelict and in a state of disrepair and its redevelopment will provide significant enhancement to the environmental condition of the site.

Formerly a railway goods depot, the Blackhorse Road site is an area of approximately 1.7 hectares currently containing a number of vacant industrial buildings, with the remainder of the site comprising derelict land.

To the north it is bounded by a railway line and Blackhorse Road Station, to the east by Blackhorse Road, and on the south and west by playing fields, the former Warner Estate Depot and the rear gardens of houses fronting on to Hawarden Road. Rising from south to north, a steep embankment is formed along much of the eastern boundary of the site.
