THE first bricks have been laid marking the start of a major redevelopment of Redcar's Lakes estate.
Tees Valley Housing Group has started work on its section of the Courts site.
The group will develop 100 of 370 homes being built on the site as part of Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council's key regeneration priorities.
Bellway Homes and Persimmon will build the homes in the first phases of the scheme, which consist 44 properties. Work has started on the first 14 two-bed bungalows, being built by Bellway specifically for people aged over 55. This will be followed by 14 houses, ranging from two to four-bedroomed properties.
The scheme will also include a pub, medical facilities, a youth and community centre and shopping.
