Work to build a new development that will create almost 100 new flats in a huge shared ownership scheme has finally got underway after years of delays.
The development at the Old Brewery at the end of North Street in Ashton Gate was originally given planning permission before the pandemic, and since then has changed to be 100 per cent ‘affordable’.
Of the 107 new homes being built there, 98 will be available to buy through a shared ownership scheme with housing association Abri, and the other nine will be rented through the council’s HomeChoice scheme at social rent levels.
