Are you looking for Conservatories in Millom?

We have many different options available when it comes to Conservatory designs. These range from the more traditional lean-to design to a p-shape conservatory. Our Perfect Fit conservatory blinds are also a great way to add further customisation to a conservatory; they allow window blinds to be fitted inside the conservatory windows and doors. They fit in fully with every opening, which means that no window or door will have restricted access of any kinda in regards to ventilation.

All of our conservatories are Bespoke Conservatories. This means that they will be tailor made to your requirements. This can be quite a daunting thought (as well as an exciting one), but with our CAD design program, we can create your Conservatory and show you exactly how it’d look on our laptop and print off a hard copy for you to keep.

For more information, please call us on 0800 915 8844 and one of our customer support staff will be happy to point you in the right direction .

One of the 15 remaining proposals to build an eco-town has been abandoned after Tesco pulled out of the plan.

The supermarket had been the main backer of the Hanley Grange; a plan to build an 8,000-home eco-town on a greenfield site in Cambridgeshire.

Situated on the outskirts of Duxford, the scheme had already run into problems when medical charity Wellcome Trust refused to sell land in order to facilitate the development.

Releasing a statement earlier today, the supermarket refused to rule out future development of the land, and is now expected to push forward a housing development through the mainstream planning process.

The scheme had attracted vehement opposition from local groups, including the Stop Hanley Grange Group (SHGG).

Julie Redfern, chair of the Stop Hanley Grange campaign, said of the proposal: “This so-called ‘masterplan’ is a joke.

“It’s just a drawing of a map of the site with a few roads and different coloured areas for houses, shops and so on.”

The group had also called the proposals “an environmentally unfriendly blot on the landscape”.

However, in a statement a Tesco spokesman argued the organisation put forward a “strong proposal for an environmentally-leading mixed-use development at Hanley Grange”.

“We think the proposal had very good prospects of succeeding under the government’s Eco Town initiative,” he added.
