manchestereveningnews.co.ukA new estate of affordable family homes is to be built on the site of a former Oldham abattoir. Planning chiefs have given permission for 39 new homes to be constructed at land off Edge Lane Street in Royton, which is currently overgrown and empty.
It is a joint project by Wiggett Construction and the Great Places Housing Group, and the dwellings are to be split between affordable rent and shared ownership.
Social rents are pegged to local incomes to keep rents more affordable, and changes to social rents are controlled by central government.
