Urban Design Skills is currently organising its Autumn 2008 study tour schedule. We will be visiting some of Britain's must-see places. Please feel free to contact us at info@urbandesignskills.com to suggest places you would like to visit in the coming months. Alternatively, send us your email address below and we will keep you posted on forthcoming events:

The following are recent study tours UDS has facilitated:

	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, 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, 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, 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.
