Plans have been approved for a new primary school in South Lanarkshire.The new Underbank Primary will be built on a site between Crossford and Hazelbank, which is currently occupied by disused glasshouses and boiler houses.Proposals for the development include creating a H-shaped single-storey building with five classrooms, a gym/dining hall, a library, break-out space and office and staff areas.In addition, a central portion will form a courtyard while the building’s entrance will include an eight-metre high feature replicating the appearance of the brick flues of the former boiler houses on the site.Other features include an environmentally-friendly air-source heat pump system, a playground wrapping around three sides of the school, a multi-use games pitch, hard and soft play areas as well as improved car parking/drop off facilities.An additional private road will be created to serve nearby residential homes, while existing access from the A72 will be widened.
