Work on Craven Park starts immediately and will provide 300 construction jobs. Designed by PRP Architects, the first homes are targeted for completion by December 2014.

Willmott Dixon managing director Tim Carpenter said: “Craven Park is the finishing touch to the transformation of a large part of the Church End area in Neasdon. Through our partnership with Catalyst, we have helped create new housing and community facilities in Church End that will provide a high quality living environment for generations to come, something that Craven Park will add to when completed next year.”
