Plans in for Icknield Square, a new canalside destination


Icknield Square is a brand-new canalside community set to deliver 243 apartments across two sustainable low carbon new builds ranging from four to 10 storeys.

The dormant plot, which is adjacent to Port Loop, represents a major opportunity to reconnect the site with a new sustainable and green destination, providing a unique offering of high-quality amenities and quality of living.

Brought forward by Places for People and designed by Howells, two blocks ranging from four to 10 storeys are proposed, each one designed in a contemporary industrial interpretation, whilst also exhibiting low carbon design principles.

A mix of build-to-rent, market sale, and affordability is expected, delivering an eclectic range of 97 one, 141 two, and 5 three-bedroom dwellings (2-5 persons; 50-87 sqm), catering to every lifestyle.

There will be an abundance of biodiverse amenities helping to green the area, including two private courtyards with canalside seating and terrace areas – and Icknield Wharf: a new public square that will dissect the site providing unrestricted access to the canal towpath.

A 'Class E' canalside commercial unit will bring additional vitality to the area.

Further championing sustainability will see the allocation of approximately 270 secure cycle spaces, EV charging bays, and 14-car parking spaces.
