Developer, Avant Homes, has started work on the new development of two, three, four and five bedroom houses just off Boroughbridge Road in Knaresborough.

The company first announced that it had acquired the two-acre site for the £22.3m development, called The Lanes, in December 2017.

The first homes will be ready for occupation in spring.
