Lewes District Council is holding a series of drop-in events to share their proposals for the re-development of council-owned garage sites in Malling, Landport and Cooksbridge.

According to a statement: “We are considering using these sites to build new council housing, which is much-needed in the district. Details shared at the sessions will include the number and size of council homes being proposed at each site, parking arrangements and who would be eligible for the homes.”

There are several garage sites in Malling and Landport (Lewes) included in the scope of these events, as well as one in Cooksbridge.

Council officers will be on hand at the events to talk to residents about the initial design options, answer any questions and listen to feedback.
