Work is now underway for a new council housing development in Bestwood. 129 energy efficient homes will be built on land off Beckhampton Road and will be made up of one, two and three bedroom properties.
The homes will consist of houses, flats and wheelchair-accessible bungalows. They are being built on behalf of Nottingham City Council by Nottingham City Homes and Lovell Homes.
The properties will go to Nottingham households on the local council house waiting list at affordable rent, as well as being low cost to run. The site used to be home to the playfield of the former Padstow School, which closed more than a decade ago.
