Mill Green, near Hatfield

The project comprised the refurbishment and extension of the listed Green Man pub, the construction of nine houses and the creation of new public open space bordering the River Lea.

Gascoyne partnered with Jarvis Homes following the success of previous work at Church Lane and prior projects in Old Hatfield. They were especially pleased to be returning the pub to its rightful place as a hub for the local community, with improved indoor and outdoor dining facilities – this, allied with new public realm, was a key element of the masterplan, derived through consultation with the local community during the 2011 Mill Green Charrette. 

The houses were completed in 2023 and their design is governed by principles of Gascoyne’s Pattern Book and Hatfield Building Code. The quality and level of detail applied to this development is representative of what will be rolled out across Gascoyne’s larger sites in the coming years. Most importantly, it is hoped that the development will engender increased vibrancy for the hamlet of Mill Green, adding long term social and economic value.
