In order to better understand the existing site conditions, we have undertaken a series of analysis to establish what works, what doesn’t and what opportunities there are to better knit Barlby New Schools with the new masterplan for the area and into the borough.

The diagrams here examine the site in terms of movement, fronts and backs, and open space and height and how they do or do not relate to the surrounding neighbourhood.

It is clear that the post-war development has broken with the tradition of streets and squares, and this is reflected in the analysis here.

Understanding both the shortfalls of the current site conditions and how the streets and squares of the wider neighbourhood operate, forms the basis of how we can successfully integrate the new Barlby schools into the local context and into the borough.
