Construction work begins at 53-home development in Earby

The foundations have been laid for the first phase of a new housing development at Spring Mill, Earby.

The partners recently came together to watch the site team lay the foundations for the first phase of homes on the development.

Barnfield Construction will deliver 53 new build homes including four one-bedroom semi-detached bungalows; 21 two-bedroom mid terrace and detached properties; 24 three-bedroom semi-detached properties and four four-bed semi-detached properties.

The former mill site was previously used as the Hoseasons Holidays office. The call centre closed in 2020 and there was little chance of an alternative viable commercial use for the site being found. As the site was redundant and previously developed, it is classed as brownfield and there is a preference to reuse these sites, easing the burden on greenfield (undeveloped) land.

The project is being delivered by Pearl Together, a joint venture company between Barnfield Investment Properties, Pendle Borough Council and Together Housing Group.

The homes will be built using timber frames to ensure the fabric and insulation of the properties are energy efficient. Each dwelling will have electric vehicle charging points and some will have solar panels.

Phillip Spurr, Pendle Borough Council’s director of place, said: “It’s fantastic to see work progressing on this PEARL Together housing development. We’ve once again joined forces with Barnfield Investment Properties and Together Housing Group to offer more housing choice in Pendle."
