Two inter-connected blocks of flats comprising of 16 units that are now no longer considered suitable for modern needs. Latterly vacant and identified for redevelopment as part of a renewal of social housing stock. Demolition of the existing flats is required prior to new-build progressing. Permission approved in 2020 for clearance of the site and replacement with 9 houses (19/02706/FUL). The new dwellings are three-bed houses and all are for affordable rent. As a result of the clearance, the proposal results in the overall net loss of 7 dwellings on completion. Works commenced in 2020 with the demolition of the redundant flats. Development of 9 dwellings (-7 net) completed in 2021/22. NB - demolition element of this development was accounted for in the 2020/21 monitoring year.
