Work has begun to build a new 124-home development in the former mining town of Spennymoor, County Durham.
The scheme, being brought forward by national housebuilder Lovell Partnerships, will offer a selection of two, three, and four-bedroom new homes. Of these 71 will be available on the open market, with the remaining 53 offering affordable housing.
The site has been named Cornish Park in honour of Norman Cornish, one of the most celebrated mining artists of the last century who lived in Spennymoor his entire life.
