Ryelands residential subdivision was planned and designed to enhance Lincoln township by incorporating its delightful attributes. A substantial width of open space is now provided alongside the spring-fed Liffey Stream between the groups of houses and adjacent to recreational areas. Features include tree-lined streets, water retention ponds, elevated boardwalks, informal footpaths, recreation (tennis courts, playgrounds and social spaces) and native planting, all providing linkages through the development and connecting the stream and play areas to the residents.
