A block of council flats named in memory of a young soldier who died in Afghanistan have been unveiled in Clifton. Tenants are set to move into the four-storey Kieron Hill Court, off Hamilton Court, "very shortly".
The block consists of 36 one-bedroom flats and are provided by Nottingham City Homes (NCH). Kieron Hill was a 20-year-old Clifton soldier who died in an explosion in Afghanistan in 2009.
At an official unveiling today (November 30), Kieron's parents, Daryl Mitchell and Vicki Holmes, spoke of their pride at seeing their son's name emblazoned on the side of the building. "If you ask any bereaved parent what is most important to them I'm sure most will say it's to keep their child's memory alive," said Mrs Holmes.
