SITE ANALYSIS
JOULE HOUSE INTERIM PORTFOLIO
SITE FINDINGS Site is acessible via footpath adjacent to A6 and Acton square, a public space. Vechile access is limited, access point via south acton square entrance. Solar gain is obstructed by surrounding residential and commercialy occupied buildings. Thus orientation of site towards solar path is not a high priority. Green space access and views should be prioritised. Section of Greater Manchester Map
