New social housing planned for near Stornoway

Hebridean Housing Partnership (HHP) plans to build 160 new homes in Lewis.

The social housing has been proposed for a site next to MacKenzie Park east of Stornoway.

HHP has submitted a planning application to local authority, Comhairle nan Eilean Siar, for its Melbost West development.

The properties would be constructed in four phases and would be a mix of one and two-storey semi-detached homes.
