Location

The site is located on the Eastern Side of Hayle and I well located to the existing town development boundary. Wherever possible the wishes and preferences of the local people who were to occupy the houses were taken into consideration during construction.

Hayle is 12 miles from Penzance and 15 minutes journey time. There are a good range of facilities. Proximity to Penzance, Camborne, Redruth and Truro presents good job opportunities with easy public transport links.

Construction
Occupiers

As no public subsidy is available the occupiers need to be local people who are in employment. But the objective is to help those who are unable to afford the very high price of open market housing in Cornwall.
