The roofs of the new Churchill retirement flats have been tiled.

The hoardings show how enjoyable retirement could be. Show apartments will be available to look round in the Spring.

It’s been a warm winter, and the daffodils in front of the Fairacre Retail Park sign have got an early start.

Looking across the car park, Homebase and Vineys and A&H have been demolished and some of the old concrete has been smashed and pulverised into piles.

The retained material will help replace gravel that would otherwise need quarrying and bringing to the site.
