The properties at 1-50 Briar Close, were built in the 1970s and are stated as now unfit for purpose in an application submitted to Bolsover Council.

Planning permission is being sought from the council for the demolition of the bungalows and their garages.

A decision is pending from the authority and is expected by the end of July.
