New homes blend in perfectly

The new development at Buckley Street in Uppermill

HERE are the first of 65 new homes being built across the borough to provide affordable and environmentally-friendly housing for families.

The £1million development on Buckley Street, Uppermill, boasts six stone terraces, each with three bedrooms and traditional features such as chimneys and lead detail to fit in with the conservation area.

Partners from Aksa Homes, Oldham Council, the Government’s Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) and the contractor Wiggett Construction met to view the finished homes.

Each property is highly energy efficient to help tenants with reduced fuel bills. They also have generous outdoor space with driveways and gardens.
