Angus Council has completed work on a new £2 million housing development in Carnoustie.

The 16 new affordable houses have been developed on Camus Crescent, a site formerly occupied by Camus House.

Eleven properties are council homes for rent, specifically eight one-bedroom cottages, two two-bedroom cottages and one four-bedroom family home.

The other five properties were built in partnership with Houses for Heroes Scotland.

Communities Convener Donald Morrison said: "All of these homes have been designed and built to high safety and efficiency standards and include an innovative design that allows conversion to add an additional room if required.

"This project is a very welcome addition to the supply of affordable rental accommodation in the area, which is very much in demand."

The five Houses for Heroes properties are fully wheelchair-accessible, as are two of the council’s houses, which have similarly been designed to fully barrier-free standards.

The project is funded in part by the Scottish Government's Affordable Housing Supply Programme.
