New modular homes welcome first council tenants

A new council development of high-quality modular homes in Fort Lane has welcomed its first tenants.

Local families are moving into five terraced and two semi-detached homes, each with their own garden and parking.

The Fort Lane housing scheme is Eastbourne Borough Council’s second modular housing development in the town, with the first opening in Langney Road and now providing new homes for 12 families.  

Councillor Stephen Holt, Leader of Eastbourne Borough Council, met some of the new Fort Lane residents this week. He said: “It was wonderful to meet some of the new tenants and hear how delighted they are with their new homes."
