Planning permission has been awarded for the redevelopment of Holly Lodge Girls’ College in Liverpool including a landscape architecture scheme designed by Cass Associates.

The planning consent includes plans for a new build two storey teaching block, a new build single storey extension to the existing sports block, along with hard and soft landscape works.

The Cass team, working with Kier Construction, has developed external works proposals including a full size, natural turf football pitch, a new, floodlit artificial grass pitch for mini-hockey and short-sided football, a new courtyard linking existing and proposed buildings, associated improvements to access and parking facilities and new soft landscaping.

Work started on site in January 2014 with completion of the project due in February 2015.
