Roddons Housing Association secured consent from Fenland District Council Planning Committee last week.

The Dale - currently empty and boarded up - has been unused for some time. Roddons said it was unsuitable and no longer fit for purpose.

All 21 new homes will be two storey and a mix of terraced and semi-detached properties. Fourteen will have two bedrooms and seven will have three bedrooms.

The layout includes three rows of terraces and three blocks of semi-detached homes. Access will be off Begdale Road and all Saints Close.
