Sholden, Deal
The site at Sholden is currently going through the planning process and should create an urban extension to the north western side of Deal in Kent. Significant ecological and landscaping mitigation has been included into the landscape strategy for the site to provide on site storm water attenuation and protect neighbouring RAMSAR and SSSI sites. The significant tree belts are being protected and reinforced to maintain the strong link and wildlife corridors along urban and rural edges of the site.
