We are delighted that Drovers Place, Huntingdon has been shortlisted for a National Planning Award 2020 in the category Planning for Affordable Housing.  Aspen Build acted as management contractor for this project on behalf of Chorus Homes, part of Places for People.

“Working in partnership with the local planning authority and Homes England, Chorus Homes has transformed a dormant site, which previously had no affordable housing provision, into a development offering a huge choice of high-quality, affordable properties. The broad mix of homes, available for affordable rent and shared ownership, comprise apartments and houses designed to the highest standards and to be energy efficient. Located close to major transport links and stunning scenery, all homes at Drovers Place will be constructed by March 2020 resulting in an exemplary affordable housing scheme that will address the high levels of housing need across Huntingdonshire”

The Planning Awards are held annually to recognise excellence in planning, regeneration, economic development, urban design, sustainable development and community development.

The Planning Awards 2020 winners will be announced on 24th September 2020.
