Why Kirk Merrington Village is different from the rest of Ferryhill

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