Greendykes Development
East Stirling

Key to the design of any sizeable new community is an appropriate mix of housing and supporting amenities to create opportunities for the residents, and to create of a sense of place and identity that would make the community a desirable place in which to live.

The Greendykes proposal combines a range of housing types and new facilities within a framework that draws upon the character of the local Carse landscape, and relates to the surrounding areas and landmarks to create a new community with a clear sense of place and belonging within the Stirling area. The original settlements of Lower Greenyards, Hartmailing and Newmills are used to define the extents of a central focus for the new community; a main street and central ‘square’ containing public facilities and opening up to spectacular views of Stirling Castle, and bounded on the west side by a new business area, and to the east by a new community school.
