Old Church Demolished for Vital New Housing | Nottingham News

Mansfield District Council has approved the demolition of a crumbling Methodist Church on Chesterfield Road South, paving the way for a transformative community project. The old building, deemed unsafe, outdated, and thermally inefficient, will be replaced by a modern church with solar panels and air conditioning — plus a two-and-a-half-story apartment block housing 12 supported living units for disabled residents. Designed to offer independence and dignity, the new apartments will include on-site staff and dedicated parking. The unanimous vote by the planning committee underscores the project’s vital role in tackling the local shortage of accessible housing, turning a legacy site into a beacon of inclusive, forward-thinking development.
