Chilton More demolition !!

Hi all,

last week called out to  Chilton to carry out a job ,     Dale street  she said I havent got a postcode

Dont worry,   I had a mate whom used to live there,  and I was looking to invest in a property there 20 years ago

BLOODY HELL  I said when I got there !

not much left of it now !!   most of its rubble now

thing is I think the house was 9 grand  then,  wonder what it would have been worth today ?

What happens to the people whom dont want to leave ?

Seems strange that some house are occupied and some boarded up ready for there fate

Whats the master plan here ?

Seems they knock them down and thats it

Nothing ever happens



 

Many of the houses had been bought when you could get change from £12,000, hence the owners owed very little on their mortgages ( if anything),

The monetary offers made to purchase weren't good enough for people to buy alternative accommodation outright at today's rates.

and/or perhaps they're not in a situation to take on a mortgage to allow them to move on

So until the offers are improved then the residence stay put - hence demolotion has stopped midway through the terraces.
