We are working in one of the most unique and challenging communities in the UK, Jaywick Sands on the Essex coast, to develop a new Place Plan working with Tendring District Council. Jaywick is the only one of the plotlands communities that retains its original small plot, low-rise high density form - an important part of social history but now a community with the highest level of deprivation in the UK.

We are leading a multi-disciplinary team including Igloo, Maccreanor Lavington, DK-CM, Antea and Potter Raper Partnership, to develop a plan for the renewal of the existing plotlands areas as well as new development on 30 hectares of land owned by Tendring District Council adjoining the existing settlement. Working in a close partnership with the multi-agency Coastal Community Team, community leaders, MHCLG, Homes England, the Environment Agency and others, we are developing new approaches for flood resilient housing and upgrading of existing properties.
