George Buchanan Architects has submitted proposals on behalf of Bellway for 115 homes at Gartferry Road, composed of 103 units for private sale and 12 affordable units.

The site occupies an area of 10.2 acres and is identified under the North Lanarkshire Modified Proposed Plan Northern Corridor LAP (29/05P) as being allocated for residential development.

Outlining their approach the architects wrote: “A key driver behind the development is the establishment of a vibrant new residential area to the north of Moodiesburn.

“Respecting the memorial, the layout of the development shall step back from the southern boundary, giving this area over to open space.”
