Why Holywell is different from the rest of Seaton Delaval

Holywell is a suburban pocket inside Seaton Delaval, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Seaton Delaval job. We plan around 1960s-90s family homes, wider drives and mature front gardens. That's why this page exists separately to ourSeaton Delaval page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
