Marina Village
The Marina Village proposal seeks to deliver between 450 and
600 new homes on a 12 ha site south of Salthouse Road in
Barrow, between Buccleuch and Cavendish Dock. It is envisaged
as a new vibrant neighbourhood, alongside a mix of uses in an
attractive waterfront location.
The original proposal also explored potential for a marina at the
site.
£1.8m was invested in junction improvements and public realm at
Marina Village in 2018. Funding has also been earmarked to
prepare the site for development. An updated Development
Framework aspires to begin development by mid-2021.
Marina Village is subject to a Homes England LAAC funding
application, and site preparation work and study are undergoing
development.
The site offers the potential to significantly enhance the existing
housing offer in Barrow, support town centre regeneration, and
alongside BAE’s proposals for the waterfront, will transform the
character of Buccleuch Dock.
