Applications have formally opened for people who would like to live in the first flats to be created as part of Midsteeple Quarter’s transformation.

The new homes, available for rent at mid-market rate, are in our trailblazing community-owned development, The Standard, at 135-139 High Street.

Those who have already registered an interest in living in the homes have been contacted and emailed an application pack.
