This proposal involves the redevelopment of the brownfield site known as Heasells Yard, Baldock Street, Royston, Herts. The site, formerly occupied by a commercial engineering business, is located within the Royston town centre Conservation Area. The scheme provides a mixed use of residential and commercial accommodation.

The development comprises six new-build townhouses at 2.5 storeys; a retained building to the northwest converted into a one-bedroom studio apartment; two one-bedroom units above parking to the east; a two-bedroom apartment within the existing building; two retained retail units fronting Baldock Street; and one retained residential unit above an existing retail unit on Baldock Street.

Each townhouse includes a small terrace or breakout space to the rear and a first-floor balcony accessed from the landing.

The design reflects the industrial history of the site, featuring lead-effect roofs with gable features, black-stained horizontal boarding, gault brickwork, and grey metal window frames, creating a contemporary aesthetic that respects the site’s heritage. If you want, I can also create a slightly more concise version suitable for a website portfolio that keeps all the key details but reads more quickly for visitors.
