Clark Contracts begins work on £35.5m Denny housing development

Work has begun on a £35.5 million housing development in Denny, delivering 137 new affordable homes for Falkirk Council tenants.

The project will be completed in two phases, the first providing 106 properties alongside new roads and landscaping, with a further 31 homes to follow.

Situated at the site of the former Denny High School, the Clark Contracts development will offer a mix of one to four-bedroom properties for social rent, built to modern standards with sustainability at their core. Solar panels will be fitted to all homes during construction.

A significant number of properties have been designed for accessibility. Twenty-five will feature enhanced adaptations for residents with mobility issues, while a further seven will be built to accommodate wheelchair users.

The scheme has received £12.6 million in funding from the Scottish Government, with an additional £1.2 million coming from developer contributions.

Kenny Gillespie of Falkirk Council said: “There is a high demand for housing across the Falkirk area and this new development will help those with the highest housing needs.

"All of the properties will be built to the most modern standards, offering tenants a high-quality home in the heart of the local community."

Michael Scanlan, Clark Contracts director added: “We are delighted to be working once again in partnership with Falkirk Council on a development that will deliver much‑needed new homes for the area.

The development is expected to be completed by November 2028. For more information visit the Clark Contracts website.
