Fresh start
A bright new future was welcomed by local residents, school children and the whole community as they gathered together to unveil Freshney Green as the new name for the Yarborough estate as it continues to embark on an exciting new phase in its future.
The new identity - chosen by pupils from the local primary school - was unveiled at a community open day to mark the next phase in the major redevelopment of the area.
“The new name really signifies this neighbourhood’s rebirth.”
Building work on the the multi-million pound, 400-home housing showpiece that will transform the neighbourhood, is expected to start as early as the spring.
And Freshney Green will lead the way for a greener Grimsby as all homes on the new development will be built to Eco Homes Standard with a range of environmentally friendly features designed to save energy, cut fuel bills and reduce pollution.
Three local children – Lilli Cutler (six), Rhea Breeze (seven) and Ebony Todd (nine) – had their designs displayed at the opening.
“We want lots of nice houses and lots of good places where children can play.”
Local residents are also playing a part in naming their streets, landmarks and play areas.
| Shoreline Chief Executive Tony Bramley said: Residents have been heavily involved in every stage of this redevelopment, right from the beginning and it is great to see the pupils of the local school embrace the opportunity to find a new name for their neighbourhood.
