Previous Development

The 13 apartments were designed and built in 2010 to a Code-4 specification, as part of a sustainable and energy-efficient home scheme.

The opening of the 13-home project was commemorated when Cath Elliott of charity Cuckoos Nest cut the tape at Ancion Court, Clough Lea.

The scheme was built for registered social landlord Connect Housing Association. Applications were only accepted from people aged over 55 who had some connection with the local area.

A spokesman for Connect said: “Marsden is the last village in the Colne Valley before everything rises to windy moorland.

“Though the area is picturesque on a sunny day, the steep hillsides, bleak moors and harsh winter weather can make life difficult for older residents, cutting them off from the community.

“Ancion Court is a valley-level housing scheme. Its aim is to help residents improve their quality of life whilst remaining in Marsden.”

The homes all have co-friendly ground source heat pumps, which have been incorporated to keep residents’ utility bills low.

The houses occupy the site of Clough Lea Mills, which dates back to 1860.
