Closed consultations

Landscape concept designs

In 2023 we appointed HTA Design to design and deliver a programme of public realm and green space improvements around the city.

As part of this, concept designs for each Levelling Up site were produced. Your feedback was used to help us with the design development, and will be combined with ongoing site surveys, analysis and research into each site’s history.

Connected Canterbury highway proposals

From August to November 2023 we consulted on the proposed changes to the public highway at five separate locations in Canterbury.

Story garden plans and routes

During June and July 2023 we consulted on our story garden plans and routes.

Nine spaces have been chosen for the story gardens:

  • the Castle Keep and grounds
  • St George's Square (clocktower)
  • Greyfriars Gardens
  • the Tower of St Mary Magdalene
  • Garden of St Mary de Castro
  • Three Cities Garden
  • Dane John Gardens
  • St Radigund's Garden
  • Solly's Orchard and Abbots Mill

In January and June 2024, we consulted on the landscape designs for the story gardens and car parks and the actual stories to be told in the story gardens.
