These housing developers just use their massisve profits made by selling their poor quality wooden huts to offer back handers to councils in order to buy out of their requirement to provide a percentge of affordable housing and or infastructure facilities. What the buyers of these new type properties seem to fail to understand is that unless they ...
I wait with interest if they catch the people to see if they're local. Chippy Chaps has also posted CCTV footage of people trying to break into their establishment, wondering if it's related as has Rock and Sole.

Councils in Devon have welcomed a multi-billion pound boost to social housing across England as part of the drive to build the homes communities need. A Teignbridge District Council spokesman said: “Teignbridge has been very successful this year in applications for government funding, securing a total of £10m for town centre regeneration and unlocking opportunities for key infrastructure ...
And not all of them are live - they couldn't afford to do that. So today Cowley Bridge road is alive and maybe Topsham Road is dead. Tomorrow they liven up somewhere else and kill off a live one.
