Moston Campus is a new residential development situated in the heart of Harpurhey.

Watson Homes collaborated with One Manchester to transform the former Moston Campus. The site, located on Ashley Lane, spans three acres in Manchester and provides affordable housing for the area. The housing development includes 50 homes, featuring a mix of two and three-bedroom properties.

AG’s Woodward Low Carbon Masonry Facing Brick in the shade Tullamore was selected due to its durability and long-lasting colour retention. The smooth finish of the brick provides a sleek, contemporary look for the residential development.

The environmental benefits of Woodward Low Carbon Masonry Brick are significant. It features nearly 46% less embodied carbon per square meter compared to traditional clay bricks, making it an excellent choice for eco-friendly projects. Refer to Woodward’s EPD in the Smooth finish here.

Additionally, AG provided several other products for the site, including Vertica® retaining walling, Xflo HomePave Smooth and Xflo Rectangular Permeable Paving Solutions® as well as Country Cobble paving. The implementation of sustainable drainage on site delivers environmental, economic, and social benefits to the development. Read more on the benefits of SuDs here.
