Purwell House, Hitchin

Development Plan

6 x 1 bedroom flats 

The Site (description of site background, reason for development)

Purwell House was completed in March 2006. Originally the site was a little used car park and drying area badly in need of regeneration. The new flats have been designed in sympathy with the surrounding properties. 

The Site (Local amenities, Transport etc)

The flats are located on the Hitchin, Letchworth border with easy access to both towns. There is a post office and local shops within walking distance.

Consultation (details of activities to be undertaken/completed)

Neighbouring residents were consulted about the scheme and significant changes made to the design as a result of the comments made. 

Local Authority nominations

The flats have been let to people on North Hertfordshire District Council’s Common Housing Register
