It was life-affirming to meet the residents of Rainbow Way in Minehead. But so much still stands in the way of Labour’s vision for social housing, says Guardian columnist John Harris

Gates Consultants are working as Principal Designer for Aster at Clay Park CLT in Totnes, where work is progressing well in the construction of 39 new houses, all for affordable rent in an area where such property is in very high demand. 🏠
The plots are laid out in three terraces across a steeply sloping site, with sustainability a prime consideration in both design and construction. 🌿Green space, including shared allotment space and an orchard have been designed into the external landscape, enhancing the environmental and community aspect of the development.
This is certainly not a standard two up-two down social housing package, environmental factors in design, construction and end use are at the forefront of the project.
