Parcel 8
CAMBRIDGE - COMPLETED
The next residential phase at Great Kneighton comprises the development of Parcels 8A and 8B providing approximately 251 new apartments and houses of which 40% will be affordable. The new homes all look out onto communal gardens with a mix of shrubs and herbaceous plants designed to provide seasonal interest throughout the year. Several English Oak trees are planted as a legacy tree species, maturing into big specimens. The lawns are being over-seeded with species rich mixture, and all planting is 80% native and wildlife beneficial.
Parcel 8B is under construction and once finished will complete Hobsons Square urban centre, connecting Water Meadow, a semi-dry SUDs basin to the existing network of historical ditches leading to Hobson’s Brook, Hobsons Walk with its avenue of trees and Hobson’s Park located to the east of Great Kneighton.
