Planning for the future of Brandon

believe housing is working on proposals for 105 new build affordable homes in Brandon.

This development would be built on land at Silver Courts, Vicarage Flats, Rowan Lea and Red Firs, which will become vacant following the approved demolition of properties in this area.

The proposal consists of 40 affordable rent properties including 12 bungalows, 43 Rent to Buy, and 22 shared ownership properties.

Working with our planning consultants, Fairhurst, we hope to submit a planning application to Durham County Council in the coming months.
