Balkerne Star Pocket Park

The pocket park was designed as a high quality focal point to the main square of a new urban development of 202 town houses and apartments in Colchester by Barratt Eastern Counties. The central square is steeply sloping and the design intention was to work positively with the constraints to create a distinctive space, with a 'percentage for art' mosaic at its centre. In 2007 the park was a Finalist in the Horticulture Weekly Landscape and Amenity Awards and also won the Silver Award for Best Communal Garden of the Daily Express New Homes and Gardens Awards.
