Frontages

According to the 2021 Census, 8,580 people live in Old Ottawa East, but the number is growing with the development of the former Oblates property and the planning of Main Street as a true ‘main street’ with mixed-use development and commercial frontages.

The town’s grandiose squares have been repaved, frontages repainted and a new tram system has gone some way to calming the gridlocked traffic.

BAE Systems near Samlesbury says the site is proposed to accommodate four regular compounds for site-based contractors, each with modular buildings with frontages onto the existing car park and gates to provide secure access into the compound areas.

It adds: “Existing external features of architectural quality such as the sash windows, bridge, former shop frontages would be restored and repaired as necessary.

Limited access will be maintained for local buses, emergency service vehicles and for frontages within the closed section of road, subject to the progress of the works.

Plans also include the delivery of a dynamic variety of amenities, including active frontages to create interest and activity at street level.

The town council will receive up to £69,472.08, which will be used to refurbish nine business frontages on High Street, Broad Street, Groe Street, and Garth Road.

This design is said to be 'sympathetic' to the Pembrokeshire Coastal National Park, with frontages typical of Pembrokeshire and a transition from blue to green colours, representing the sea to land transition.

It sits on a 1646 sq m site area and has two street frontages.

Straight, white-rendered house frontages rising to flat roofs, sharply geometric door surrounds and tall windows, as well as convex-curved metal corner windows, were all characteristic of that period.

The eighty original lots had frontages of fifty feet; each lot faced a broad street and backed onto a twelve-foot lane.
