YORK MP Hugh Bayley has visited a housing development in Burnholme and met a company director to mark Employee Ownership Day.

Mr Bayley was at the Heworth Edge development — the site of the former Burnholme Social Club — and met Neil Coote, director of Lindum York.

The 28 houses and nine flats at Heworth Edge are due to be completed early next year, and the development will include a new social club as well as a children’s play area.
