Northcombe Lea Open Day – Friday, 18th August

At Netherhay, Drimpton, the Northcombe Lea street name is now in place, as is Broadwindsor Group Parish Community Land Trust‘s 2023 plaque. The site has a mixture of apartments and one, two and three bedroomed homes.

The process by Abri to allocate homes to tenants will get underway tomorrow, 24th July, when the individual units will be advertised on Dorset Council‘s Homechoice website. The tenants will begin moving in during late August.

The Open Day on 18th August is an opportunity to view the 15 high quality, affordable, rural homes before they are occupied.

From 10.00am ’til 1.00pm:
Please park cars at Drimpton Village Hall and walk round to Northcombe Lea on Netherhay Lane, where staff from Abri and members of the BGP CLT Board will be available to talk to and answer any questions.
There will be a few disabled parking spaces available on the site.
Refreshments and facilities will be available at Drimpton Village Hall.

The Community Land Trust was established in 2016 and it acquired the freehold of a 1.5 ha development site from the Hedditch family.  If you would you like to join the BGP CLT, find out more on their Membership page – click HERE.
