Work on a £3.5 million housing refurbishment project in Govan, Glasgow is now complete.

CCG has completed work to redevelop four blocks of flats in Crossloan Road.

The scheme, which was carried out on behalf of Elderpark Housing, saw the number of flats reduced from 35 down to 31, with a third flat removed on some of the landings to increase space for residents.

Other new features include a utility room in each flat, internal wall insulation, communal wi-fi as standard and a complete makeover of the close and back court areas which retain the existing history.
