The neighborhood, Queen Elizabeth Park is a distinctive, award-winning residential community with a rich military and archaeological heritage. Built on the former Queen Elizabeth Barracks site, the area retains links to the Auxiliary Territorial Service, the Women’s Royal Army Corps and the Army’s No. 3 Map Depot, reflected in local road names including Forster Road.
Archaeological investigations also uncovered evidence of a Roman enclosure dating from the first century AD, revealing a much older layer of local history.
Following the closure of the barracks, the site was transformed into a thoughtfully planned neighbourhood with mature trees, landscaped green spaces and pedestrian-friendly streets. The development received national recognition, including the Building for Life Gold Standard Award and commendation in the Housing Design Awards.
