2. Malahide Road [see Cross Sections]<br />
CHARACTER<br />
● The northern edge is formed by the busy Malahide Road which as part of the<br />
Pavilions Development shall contain a series of routes, access points, set<br />
down areas and a junction with the inclined street, The Rise.<br />
● A landscape corridor shall adjoin the Pavilions Development edge, linking<br />
from the R132 via Malahide Road to Main Street.<br />
DESIGN<br />
● New buildings will have a parapet height along the Malahide Road which will<br />
be consistent with the existing Pavilions height at c.15-17m<br />
● Building above this height shall be set back and stepped in profile to avoid<br />
any overlooking, overshadowing or excessive visual dominance of<br />
neighbouring residential lands.<br />
● Semi mature tree planting will occur along the length of the Pavilions site<br />
facing onto Malahide Road. Such trees will be planted with an initial height<br />
of 6m at 8m centres and positioned within prepared tree pits.<br />
