Everards Meadows, Phase 1A

Regeneration Project of the Year Award 2019 Winner

Everards Meadows Phase 1A is part of Everards Brewery’s relocation strategy to create a viable and vibrant destination.

The multi-phased strategy will transform an area of the Soar Valley floodplain to the south of the Brewery’s former site at Castle Acres. The move has enabled expansion of Fosse Park.

Phase 1A involved constructing a new cycle centre and cafe as well as site-wide green infrastructure works to regenerate an area of previous inaccessible green space.
