Why Agnew is different from the rest of Newton Aycliffe

Agnew is a suburban pocket inside Newton Aycliffe, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Newton Aycliffe job. We plan around longer single-vehicle drives that often need widening or re-shaping. That's why this page exists separately to ourNewton Aycliffe page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
