Brassington Welcomes New Eco-Homes

Posted on Monday, 27 October 2008 12:15PM by Editor
The Derbyshire Dales has recently unveiled four new evnvironmentally friendly homes that are hoped to be a sign of things to come. Heated by ground source heat pumps, these properties help to cut emissions for heating and will provide a constant heat to their inhabitants. In addition to this, the homes have been built from locally sourced stone to reduce the transportation costs; both environmental and financial.

Thanks to a grant from the Housing Corporation, and funding from the district council and Nottingham Community Housing Association, these four houses, known as Meadow Cottages, are hoped to be the beginning of things to come. The area has been identified as an area short on housing, and these homes are certainly a step in the right direction. There have bene calls for more affordable housing, an issue that the Derbyshire Dales District Council will be addressing in the near future.
