The design-and-build project will create 17 two-bedroom houses, four three-bedroom houses and a two-bedroom bungalow designed for a resident using a wheelchair. The development has been designed by Croft Goode Architects.

Work on the year-long construction programme is set to start in July 2013.
As part of the scheme, Lovell will demolish 48 flats which currently occupy the site at Glenapp Place and Sundrum Place.
This is Lovell's fourth project for Irvine Housing Association. The most recent scheme is a mixed tenure development of 48 homes at Bank Street, Irvine.
The Pennyburn scheme was awarded to Lovell – which is a member of Riverside Group's Cutting Edge framework agreement – following a mini competition.
Lovell regional director Alan Taylor said: "We're excited to be working once again with Irvine Housing Association to deliver this high-quality affordable housing development which will create much-needed new homes for social rent in Pennyburn."
