The scheme delivered 100% affordable housing, providing homes for 18 families in the local area. There is wheelchair access provided.

All of the apartments were constructed to achieve EPC B and the building was constructed to allow natural light to minimise energy costs for the residents and reduce fuel poverty and was designed with flexibility of space in mind with adaptable communal areas and spacious open plan apartments all wheelchair accessible and with generous internal apartment storage spaces.
