Tuesday 27 May 2014 saw the official opening of the new extension adjacent to the existing Palmer Court scheme at Hatton Avenue in Wellingborough.
Martin Clarke, Chairman of the Masonic Housing Association, unveiled a commemorative plaque in the presence of RWBro Max Bayes, Provincial Grand Master, and Councillor Graham Lawman, the Mayor of the Borough of Wellingborough.
The Masonic Housing Association has completed its £1.2 million project to construct the new flats. The project has been financed entirely by the association without any grant or public subsidy
The flats are all self-contained with a living room, kitchen and shower room. Built in storage is provided. Accommodation is under one roof with a protected main entrance door for security, but each couple has a front door to their own flat.
The new occupiers can make use of the Residents' Lounge and other facilities at the existing Palmer Court. In addition, the new flats have integral laundry facilities and the new guest room enables relatives to stay overnight for a nominal charge.
Some of the flats are already let and the remainder will be offered to nominees of the Local Authority and the Masonic Housing Association’s waiting list.
