Info

ornate style comprising architectural features and details ‘borrowed’ from several distinct periods – including cantered bay windows, Dutch gables, mansard roof and recessed arched bays with balconies. Open space consists of communal gardens, influenced by classical English garden design, evident in such features as follies, herbaceous borders, manicured lawns and water features. Several mature trees (most notably beech, oak and scots pine) along the northern boundary provide a leafy backdrop to this area. Area 11B Liddell Way, South Ascot dates from the 1970s and evolved as part of the surrounding late post war suburb of 10C Liddell Way, South Ascot. Areas which evolved as part of post war suburbs generally mimic the surrounding streetscape character (including a street pattern of wide tarmac curvilinear streets with concrete kerbs and related building set backs), and have similar building materials. It comprises simple, three storey brick flats, set amongst communal open space and has a similar streetscape character to 10C Liddell Way, South Ascot. Parking consists of communal front/side car parks and garages to the rear. Area 11C St James Gate, Sunningdale is a modern ‘gated’ development. It contains several mature trees (most notably lime, cypress, sycamore and oak) which contribute to the area’s leafy character. This area shares attributes with the ‘Executive Residential Estates’ such as its quiet and private in character. All of the generic guidance applies to these areas. In addition to this, in North Ascot (Area 11A), it will be important to conserve and enhance the node at Windsor Road /London Road roundabout as a point of focus in the townscape, and conserve the mature trees along the northern boundary of Area 11A, planning for their future replacement with similar species. It will also be important to conserve mature trees in Area 11C and plan for their future replacement with similar species. The underlying geology of North Ascot, South Ascot and Sunningdale is Bagshot Beds. Suitable native tree species include Oak, Birch, Scot's Pine, Beech and Sweet Chestnut.
