Plans submitted for 50 new homes in Southwick
Adur District Council is working with private company Albion Street Developments to design proposals for 50 homes on the site at 7-27 Albion Street in Southwick.
The existing site contains ‘dilapidated and out-dated social housing’, a spokesman for the council said.

Hide AdIf approved, the proposal would see the creation of 50 one and two-bedroom flats in two buildings ranging from four to six storeys in height – an increase of 41 units.
Of these, 15 homes would be affordable council housing.
The plans would see the buildings at 11-27 Albion Street demolished, while 7-9 Albion Street would be refurbished to provide six flats within the existing building.
There would be under croft car parking to the rear of the building and landscaping across the site.
Developers said the scheme would lead to ‘a demonstrable enhancement’ of the site, with the proposed buildings creating high-standard accommodation which has low energy use and will boost biodiversity.
A public consultation on the plans was held in April.
