Housing Minister visits our Rocheway Site

Lucy Frazer, Minister of State for Housing and Planning visited our recently completed development at Rocheway, Rochford with delegates from Essex County Council, Essex Homes and Rochford Council on Tuesday 17 January.

It was announced that the Government will invest £60 million for Councils to revive brownfield sites and make way for high quality new homes.

The scheme at Rocheway was delivered on a 2.6 acre former school site and consisted of two phases. The first, provided fourteen three and four-bedroom family homes and served as an enabling development for the second phase.  A 60 unit Independent Living for Older People (ILOP) scheme (50% affordable and 50% private) to help meet housing needs in the locality for older people.
