A housing developer has been given the green light to progress with plans to build 48 new homes at the site of the former Durham Police headquarters.
Persimmon Homes has received permission from Durham County Council to progress with the second phase of its Aykley Woods development, just north of Durham city centre. Phase two, which received approval from the Council's planning committee last year, will provide a mix of new homes ranging in size from two bedroom bungalows to four bedroom detached homes.
And a contemporary design will see the new homes incorporating contrasting brick panelling, grey window frames and Juliette and full balconies on several properties.
