Work to demolish ‘concrete-cancer’ ridden homes in Holcombe Green is now well under way.

44 new homes will be built between September 2010 and April 2011 and will be a mix of one and two bedroom flats and two and three bedroom houses. Some will be offered through one of two schemes which help people to eventually buy their homes on a shared ownership basis.
