Plans to renovate the Old Vicarage Flats building in the heart of the town to provide six affordable flats for local people have taken a major step forward this week after St Ives Community Land Trust signed the Town Deal Funding Agreement for the capital works.
Awarded £750,000 from the Town Deal Fund, the Old Vicarage Flats project is the first community-led housing project to be delivered in the town centre. The project has now received its first payment of £464,381.
