Timtagel Close demolition completed

DEMOLITION of the derelict Tintagel Close estate in Keynsham is now complete.

The 44 three-bed maisonettes have been knocked down to make way for 45 energy-efficient new homes.

They will range from one to four bedrooms, with several adapted for wheelchair use. Each home will have its own private entrance, designated parking and electric vehicle charging point.

Most of the homes will be “affordable” and available for subsidised social rent, typically 40% below the market rate.

Bath & North East Somerset Council granted housing association Curo permission for the scheme last year. Construction is scheduled to be completed by January 2028.
