The popular Parishes shopping and leisure complex - which houses the seven-screen Vue cinema - and the Plowright Theatre offer a wealth of recreation pursuits.

The surrounding villages and towns of Brigg, Broughton, Bottesford and Messingham offer additional shopping and leisure facilities. Scunthorpe itself is well served in terms of its road network, with easy access to the M180 and M181 motorways and the major trunk roads A180 and A15 towards Barton Upon Humber. With the added bonus of two nearby airports; Robin Hood & Humberside, Water’s Edge is in an ideal location. Sheffield and Doncaster lie to the West, just a short drive away, while Grimsby and its popular nearby seaside resort of Cleethorpes, lie to the East.

As well as a variety of two, three and four-bedroom home styles, the stunning Lakeside project also includes proposals for a new school, football pitch, parkland, additional lakes, and a village centre on the edge of Scunthorpe. Some of the houses will have views of green open space and Ashbyville Lake, a popular spot with anglers, with the development located close to the popular Lakeside Retail Park. The Scunthorpe steelworks, is also within close proximity to the Water’s Edge - with the development creating an excellent housing opportunity for the town’s biggest employer.
