A foundation stone for a bungalow being built by a housing trust has been laid by MP Eleanor Laing
Theydon Trust in Epping, which has received support from Mrs Laing and Epping Town Council, will have built 21 properties following the bungalows completion.
The housing trust works to provide homes for local people who have had housing needs.
The one-bedroom bungalow in Margaret Road, Epping should be ready for occupation by the end of the year.
Mrs Laing said: “I would like to congratulate everyone involved in this brilliant project and on behalf of our local community I would like to thank the Theydon Trusts for the great work that they are doing.
“There is enormous demand for housing in Epping and the surrounding area, not surprising because it is such a great place to live.
"It is brilliant that the Trust is providing dwellings like this for people who really need them.”
