Miller Homes North East has commenced work on the Station Fields development at Tanfield, transforming the former Ever Ready battery production factory brownfield site into residential homes ranging between two to five bedrooms. The development includes eight two-bedroom affordable houses with high-spec detailing and open-plan layouts. The project investment is £130k and is expected to improve the aesthetic of the area as part of the Section 106 (S106*) agreement. The agreement commits £66,920 for bus service and bus infrastructure, £28,680 towards a cycleway and footpath, and £43,200 towards sports facilities. County Durham has already seen several Miller Homes developments, with Edward Burton, head of planning at Miller Homes, describing the Station Fields development as “further proof of our commitment to the county”. The Tanfield Railway, the world’s oldest railway still in use, surrounds the site, providing potential buyers with access to picturesque green surroundings.
Miller Homes North East has recently started constructing homes on the Station Fields development in Tanfield on the site of the former Ever Ready battery production factory. The Station Fields development will provide two to five bedroomed homes, including eight two-bedroom affordable houses, with a high level of specification and open plan layouts. Furthermore, it is expected to improve the local area’s aesthetic appearance. The Section 106 agreement has committed to an investment of £130k, with funds allocated for a bus service and infrastructure, a cycle path and footpath and sports facilities. The promise of picturesque green surroundings, including the Tanfield Railway, the world’s oldest railway still in use, makes the Station Fields development an attractive prospect for those seeking a semi-rural lifestyle. This latest development is part of Miller Homes North East’s continued commitment to County Durham. Edward Burton, the head of planning, says the “picturesque countryside” and ease of access to Durham and Newcastle provide an attractive location.
