Public realm improvements
These proposals will vastly enhance public realm around St Chad’s Place and off South Walls – creating an engaging corridor to connect the River Sow with the Market Square and high street.
They will complement recent upgrades to Market Square, the Riverside Retail Development and Staffordshire Place.
- Seamless River-to-Town Access – improved entry from the waterfront into the heart of Stafford.
- New Pocket Park – an improved link connecting river frontage with Tipping Street and Eastgate Street.
- Stronger Pedestrian Routes – enhanced connections through existing public spaces into the town centre.
- St Chad’s Setting Revitalised – new public space and improved pedestrian approach.
- Landscaped Courtyard – high-quality space with managed public access.
- Direct Market Square Link – strengthening the connection to Stafford’s civic heart.
