A housing development on the site of the former Chingford municipal offices is scheduled to welcome new homeowners in January.

The Fairview development includes 88 properties in The Ridgeway and the former town hall building on the site will be restored and turned into luxury flats.

Six of the new homes will be completed for buyers to move into during the first week of January.

Of the 88 new homes, 14 will be social housing. The plot of land was vacated by the council six years ago.

Works to refurbish the old Town Hall are scheduled to start next month.

The development is due to be completed in November 2014.
