CCG has completed work on a new housing development in Greenock.

Constructed upon the site of the former Ravenscraig Primary School by CCG, a total of 36 homes have been delivered in a mix of 28 two, three and four-bedroom semi-detached houses and 8 two-bedroom cottage flats.

CCG was appointed by Oak Tree HA through the Scottish Procurement Alliance (SPA) framework for offsite construction of new homes with the development designed by MAST Architects.

Future residents are set to benefit from the development's location with public transport links, amenities and leisure facilities within a short distance, whilst a communal greenspace has been integrated into the site's masterplan.
