The following are recent study tours UDS has facilitated:

Gun Wharf

Gun Wharf, Plymouth
Gun Wharf replaces a 1950s council estate in a severely deprived neighbourhood, which became one of the first projects under the New Deal for Communities programme.

   
Crown Street Crown Street, Glasgow
The Crown Street area, part of Glasgow's Gorbals district, is about a mile from the city centre, immediately south of the River Clyde. The development - of which Erroll Gardens is typical - marks the rediscovery of the urban street.
   
Charlton Down Charlton Down, Dorset
Charlton Down is a mainly housing development on the site of a former Victorian mental hospital, three miles north of Dorchester. When complete it will have around 550 housing units.
   
Accordia Accordia, Cambridge
Accordia, two miles from Cambridge city centre, is a bold attempt to create relatively high-density, high-quality housing on a large urban infill site, creating a strong street pattern with contemporary architectural design.
