Kings Mill Lodge - New Supported Housing

The old Kings Mill Lodge building at the bottom of Newsome Road has been demolished and is being replaced with supported housing for adults with a range of needs who need a safe environment to enable them to live independently.

The design for the building has been carried out by One17 Design who are based in Armitage Bridge and has very high environmental standards. Councillor Andrew Cooper said, "It is great that a building being constructed in the Newsome Ward has been designed by a company based here as well."

The new building is yet another in our area with solar panels on the roof making the Newsome Ward an area with the highest concentration of solar panels in the country.
