Help Shape the Future of Marske Square
Beyond Housing is partnering with Groundwork North East & Cumbria to improve Marske square and make it a more enjoyable space for everyone in the community.
Your opinion matters. We’d love to hear your thoughts on the current square and the proposals for its redesign. The plans are also available in Marske Library.
Please note the survey closes on Friday 19 April.
Updates will be added to this page as the project progresses.
Project proposals subject to funding
- Open up the square, creating a large central multi-functional space by removing the section of existing raised grass area
- Re-use walling sandstone to create a new raised grass area in unutilised north west corner
- New paving, level to tarmac to refresh the look of the square and provide a new suitable surface for temporary events
- Introduce new wall-top oak timber seating on the newly constructed curved walls to provide more seating
- Refurbish and re-use existing street furniture, including benches, planters, and litter bins
- Add trees to the edge of the newly paved area to add greenery and soften the hard landscape, whilst keeping usable space.
