Show more "Ada Holmes Circle, built in 1998 and opened the following year, forms a striking centrepiece to Greenwood Avenue in North Hull.
Constructed in a circle around the avenue, the development provides 30 sheltered housing flats, including one flat suitable for use by disabled persons, surrounded by 18 two-bedroomed bungalows and a Scheme Manager’s house.
The sheltered homes on the north side of the Circle are linked by a semi-glazed internal ‘street’, an unusual design which is to be seen in only a handful of
sheltered housing developments in Britain.
There is a strong sense of community at Ada Holmes Circle, both within the development, where the residents organise and run many events and activities,
and within the wider North Hull community. In recent years, residents and staff linked to this scheme have forged strong links with local schools and groups,
resulting in long-term benefits for everyone concerned, young and old." Show less
