Does anyone know anything about the Church development on South Street / Church Rise. I think I heard something about it being turned into luxury flats?!

Yep your right.
I have seen a sign at the site that it it was going to be a series of luxury flats.
The agents are Hindwoods Hunter Payne.

Oh dear. Not a good start I promise you!

Lets just say that I have the distinct mis-fortune to have my flat managed by these wasters, and the vision of fawlty towers style incompetency does not nearly begin to tell the story!

To be avoided at all costs! And that's a top tip!

This 'development' has been on going for over two years. I think it was originally being handled by Acorn. It went quiet for a few months, but now it looks like they've stepped up a gear.

'Stepped up a gear'? That has involved closing the gaping hole at the end of one of the aisles and then making some new holes in the roof! Sounds like a pure lake development to me. Look forward to opening in time for the Olympics.

Actually this development sounds good. Converted churches normally attract much more attention than the usual.

Personally, there is no way I'd live in a church. Far too spooky.

When I say stepped up gear, i am of course referring to the switch from reverse to first.

I assume that the holes in the roof are for new windows.
