House of Somerset

14/04/20

The House of Somerset will be located just off Junction 26 of the M5. It will be a regional destination which will showcase the best of Somerset’s food, drink and farm supply producers. They've also produced this website showing what the proposed scheme will look like.

The proposed development will include a Visitor Centre, Food Court, Produce Hall and Farmers Market. Adjacent to the House of Somerset will be a pair of Artisan Buildings that contain workshops related to the craft producers on display. Sustainable principles underpin the design of the scheme which will include green roofs, electric vehicle charging points and a bicycle hire facility.

Over the last few months we have undertaken a Flood Risk Assessment with surface water and foul drainage strategies and a Transport Assessment with a Framework Travel Plan to support the detailed planning application.
