Canniesburn, Glasgow
Canniesburn, a new residential development on the outskirts of Bearsden in Glasgow was completed at the end of 2006. The project, which is a joint venture between CALA Homes and Miller with CALA acting as lead developer, is a mix of flats and townhouses with some commercial space. Three B listed hospital buildings have been restored and adapted and a number of new build apartments have been constructed.
The proposals were centred on the three listed buildings which are refurbished into 22, 12 and 22 flats respectively. The opportunity of installing new-build flatted blocks to the south of these buildings was taken to form three distinct courtyard spaces. This set the scene for the creation of a new community set in attractive woodland.
