Leek Public Realm
Client : Staffordshire Moorlands District Council | Location : Leek, Staffordshire
Leek Town Centre Public Realm Regeneration proposals link two of Leek’s most important civic spaces, Leek Market Place and The Nicholson War Memorial, incorporating aspirations to provide a much more coherent public realm environment on Leek’s primary shopping street, Derby Street.
A key principle of the proposals is to respect and enhance the Town Centre conservation area setting and contribute to the creation of a unique sense of place; welcoming, safe and accessible for all. The public realm improvements aim to create clutter-free, flexible spaces utilizing good quality design and materiality principles fulfilling functional needs as well as creating an appealing environment.
