The parcels of land are part of the ‘Small Sites’ scheme – which brings small plots of Council-owned land into residential use, with the aim of boosting the local economy. Two events promoting the scheme are to take place during November where council officers will be on hand to discuss specific sites, and explain more about the purchase.
