the area is currently an extensive housing estate with additional development continuing on adjacent land.

The development contains a number of newly built houses and flats — mixed social and private dwellings.

Orchard Park Community Primary School caters for 5–11 year olds.

The busway passes the edge of the development with two sheltered bus stops at East and West Orchard Park.

The Ring Fort Path proposal[4] would close the gap between the local hotel and school and the pedestrian crossing over the A14 to Histon.
