Work has started on a £3.1m housing scheme to transform a former hotel and social club site.
A partnership between Anwyl Construction and housing provider ClwydAlyn will create 30 older person living apartments in Connah’s Quay, Flintshire.
The project is on the old Albion hotel and social club site which had been a target for anti-social behaviour.
Planning has been secured and demolition of the existing building is underway.
This will be followed by site clearance and enabling works in preparation to start construction work, which is due to complete in September 2020.
Tom Anwyl, managing director of Anwyl Construction, said: “This is a positive and exciting scheme for many reasons. Not only are we regenerating an abandoned site that has become an eyesore for the local community, but we are creating a high number of quality homes for local people.
“We are also supporting and sustaining local employment, working with our own team as well as local suppliers over the course of the project.”
This project forms part of ClwydAlyn’s large scale development investment plans across the region providing a wide-range of affordable housing.”
