Wayne Sutton, regional managing director, said: "We are delighted to be bringing more much needed affordable, quality homes to the area. We are dedicated to ensuring that the housing market better serves young first-time buyers and families on low to average incomes, making homeownership a reality for everyone. We believe this development will further enhance our presence within the community and demonstrate our commitment to the region, complementing our existing local development, Macaulay Park, where we have seen strong and encouraging levels of local demand.

"We are looking forward to working with the local community and will employ a workforce that comprises of local labour, including apprentices and contractors."
