The Silverthorne Lane development
The development consists of 6 plots, all with planning permission in place:
Plot 1
Outline planning permission for new building providing employment, research and learning space delivered by the University of Bristol as part of the adjacent Temple Quarter Campus.
Plots 2- 4
Full planning permission for a vibrant new canalside community of homes and commercial employment space delivered by Studio HIVE.
Plot 5
Full planning permission for Oasis Academy Temple Quarter - A long-awaited new secondary school and sixth form delivered by the Department for Education.
Plot 6
Plot 6 has full planning permission for a development of purpose-built student accommodation.
Revised proposals for Plot 6
Since planning permission was obtained, Plot 6 has since been acquired by a development team led by Studio HIVE. A new design team has been appointed to produce a new design for the student accommodation on Plot 6, that aims provide a more positive response to the site and its context, resulting in a slightly reduced overall height of the development and providing more open space on the canalside, as well as increased planting and opportunities for Biodiversity Net Gain.
While there is a planning permission already in place, the improvements we are proposing require a new planning application to be submitted for Plot 6 only (the remainder of the Silverthorne Lane development is unaffected, with work expected to commence imminently to implement the planning permissions for plots 1-5).
Before we submit a new planning application for Plot 6, we would welcome your feedback on the changes we are proposing. Please take a moment to view our proposals on this website before completing our online feedback questionnaire.
