The new housing development, now known as Thorndyke View, was officially opened in a ceremony held on Friday, November 25, and members of Acis Group and West Lindsey District Council were in attendance to celebrate the completion of the regeneration project.

The formalities were completed with Coun Owen Bierley, leader of the council, cutting the ribbon to mark the end of the works on the site.

Acis Group, who own and manage more than 7,000 homes in the East Midlands, Yorkshire and the Humber, have brought 27 new family homes to the area as part of their ongoing redevelopment works in Gainsborough.

At the opening, Acis Group’s director of Property, Mark Jones, said: “We’re delighted that this part of our regeneration plans in Gainsborough has been completed and officially opened.
