It is a highly desirable group of just 15 properties consisting of one, two and three bedroom detached, semi-detached and terraced bungalows and houses.
The Parish Council are trying to reconfirm the level of housing needs for this scheme and also to collate a list of interested parties who will be contacted as the scheme proceeds.
