September NewsWe have progressed this month with our Affordable housing schemes with another successful project starting in Satterthwaite. The scheme sees the conversion of the existing Satterthwaite and Rusland Primary school which was closed in 2007. The existing building will be converted to create two new spacious two bedroom flats. A further four timber framed houses are to built in the grounds providing 2 three bed and 2 four bedroomed houses. The contractor for this scheme is Thomas Armstrong of Flimby.
Day Cummins have been awarded a contract to renovate the Dower House and Grade II Listed building at Rheda Park. The building is currently derelict having last been lived in during the early 1980's. The buildings did have approval for conversion to seven dwellings but this has lapsed. The buildings made of sandstone with tower are set within it's own courtyard.
Work continues within Cockermouth Town Centre, with Day Cummins actively involved in the redesigning new shop fronts as part of a collaboration with Allerdale Borough Council and local shop owners. Schemes include Tiffens, Westnidges and Cleelands.
