Roanheads Village, Peterhead
This development, built on the site of a derelict fish factory in Peterhead, was named as the winner of the Social Residential Housing Development of the Year in the Herald Property Awards 2009. We completed our largest development to date in the centre of the town in August 2008. The 52 homes are planned around a homezone setting which encourages community interaction and control of vehicle traffic. The design of this award winning development is also influenced by the characteristics of the Poundbury Village in Dorset.
Following on Tenants First experience at Ballater, Roanheads Village embraces the latest in off-site construction techniques. Local contractors, Stewart Milne, have developed an advanced timber frame system being used for the first time in Scotland at our Peterhead site.
The Co-operative is currently negotiating the acquisition of other sites nearby to develop in partnership with Aberdeenshire Council.
