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.
