Local Partnerships

We are working with partners on plans for new housing on 5 sites. These will provide high quality, affordable homes to help meet local housing need. Our partners -

  • Local Partnerships
  • ID Planning
  • IDP Architects

These homes are being delivered using Modern Methods of Construction and will be the first of their kind to be delivered by the Council using this method of construction (closed panel system). These homes will be highly efficient and their off-site construction will help towards meeting the Council’s Net Zero targets.

The 5 sites are as follows -

  • Walliker Street - 3 houses. The proposed site is at the southern end of Walliker and Perry Street near the railway line
  • Ellerburn Avenue - 5 houses. The proposed site is at the end of Ellerburn Avenue near Hall Road
  • Martin Close - 5 houses
  • Campbell Court - 17 bungalows
  • Oriel Grove - 16 houses and 4 bungalows
