Regeneration work has started on a £2.1 million project in Manchester.

Developer Seddon and Southway Housing Trust have partnered to regenerate the former Ladybarn Social Club site on Beverly Road in south Manchester.

The site is to be transformed into 18 one-bedroom and eight two-bedroom flats across three buildings.

Patrick Ross, Head of Business Development at Southway Housing Trust, said: "The Ladybarn development is part of an expanding and ambitious programme of residential development across South Manchester and the surrounding areas. Southway owns and manages almost 6,000 homes in the area and is looking to grow and diversify that stock by developing schemes such as this, increasing the supply of quality homes in South Manchester through developing a range of tenures including flats and houses for affordable or market rental and sale.

"Working with Seddon, we are pleased to be providing 26 new affordable homes for rent in an area of shortage. Currently Southway are looking for more sites, properties and development opportunities across the area to enable us to deliver our programme.”

Building is expected be complete by December 2016.
