Warburton Hey, Rainhill
Project Name: Warburton Hey
Type: Residential
Client: Torus
Location: Rainhill
147 Houses and Apartments for Social Rent, Shared Ownership and Sale in Rainhill. A landscape focused masterplan has created a variety of interesting and unique streetscapes, from houses focused around a door-step green through to a formal linear green space that connects to an existing park.

A hierarchy of shared surfaces creates a characterful set of streets, establishing an identity to the development - a unique sense of place.

A door-step green is focused around an existing set of mature trees. Housing surrounding the square provides casual supervision and overlooking of the space - creating a welcoming and safe play space for small children.

This project transformed a major area of Rainhill village to provide much needed family housing across all tenures.

The scheme achieved Building for Life Gold, was Shortlisted for the Housing Design Awards and achieved the Built for Life Kitemark
