Southern area
The southern part of the site including
the conservation area and listed buildings
will be the main focus for mixed use
development at Daedalus due to the
existing concentration of buildings, the
location within the built up area and the
proximity to the seafront and the centre of
Lee-on-the-Solent.
The collection of historic buildings give
the site instant character and structure.
Most appear to be in good condition with
the potential to accommodate a range
of residential, employment and leisure
uses. This site also lends itself to a mix
of soft and hard surface public spaces.
The former may be concentrated amongst
residential buildings with the latter
providing flexibility around employment
buildings
Good physical and visual links with the
surrounding neighbourhoods are possible.
There is potential to create access points
from a number of streets making the site
accessible from the seafront, town centre
and adjoining residential areas.

Top centre: the development should reconnect the sire to
the seafront.
Top right: the site should become part of a natural network of
routes, fully integrated with the existing urban fabric.

green space.
