Contributed from Colyton Parish Council newsletter

Demolition of the former CeramTec buildings in Colyton, earmarked primarily for housing, has been completed.

Homes England's Senior Development Manager, Sam Gammon, said that while there had been a small number of complaints associated with the work, contractors Hughes & Salvidge had been proactive in their liaison with neighbours and remained committed to minimising disruption.

He apologised for any inconvenience the works had caused and added: "I look forward to being able to provide you (Colyton Parish Council) with a further update on the demolition works and our next steps at the site in the first Parish Newsletter of 2021.

Colyton Parish Council has instigated a liaison committee involving both councillors and local residents to facilitate a two-way flow of information between the developer, contractors and the council.

Parishioners who have any concerns or would like further information should contact the parish clerk, Sasha Haines, in the first instance.
