Nottinghamshire farmers turn dairy farm into 'unique' homes with 'great views' in Burton Joyce

Nottinghamshire farmers have turned a dilapidated dairy farm into 'unique' homes with 'great views'. A section of land at Glebe Farm in Burton Joyce which was until recently a "concrete mess" is being transformed into new 14 homes.

Frank and Tania Taylor, who own various farms across Nottinghamshire including Glebe Farm, undertook the development themselves after deciding the old diary farm needed to be replaced. Tania said the site was now a "special place", with the main construction contractor even choosing to move into one of the new homes.

"It was an old dairy farm before we did anything and it was just one big giant dilapidated concrete mess. We were left with this nightmare of these old farmhouse buildings, and the two options were to either put up chicken sheds or alternatively to try and do something with housing," Mrs Taylor said.
