The Steadings will create a new community welcoming those at all stages of life. The housing provided includes housing for the elderly, affordable homes and private market houses.
The traditional and Grade II listed farm buildings in the middle of the site will set the character of this area, and their refurbishment will act as the focal point of The Steadings.
The new state of the art three-form entry primary school can also be found at the local centre, complementing its offering and set comfortably facing across the square. This central square will be directly off the primary access road, with walking and cycling connections making it easily accessible to all residents.
The Community Management Trust (CMT) is a charitable company which will own, maintain and manage the green open spaces, the community buildings, children’s play areas, sports pitches and other assets at The Steadings.
Working with the District Council, the Town Council and the local community, the CMT will re-invest in The Steadings to build a cohesive community in which everyone who lives, works or goes to school at The Steadings will be a part.
The Steadings will deliver a range of different employment opportunities and space for companies wishing to relocate as well as catering for new start-ups.
