An exciting building site hoarding, inspired by the days when Lincoln had its own racecourse on the West Common, is turning heads along Carholme Road. Adorned with vibrant racehorse artwork, it’s catching the attention of motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians alike.
The hoarding surrounds a new Framework Housing Association development, which will provide high-quality accommodation for people experiencing homelessness in Lincoln. This project follows closely on the heels of Gelder Group’s successful delivery of Sincil House, built on the site of Lincoln’s former Golden Cross pub in the city’s High Street.
Sincil House, handed over last September, offers 15 self-contained flats alongside tailored, comprehensive support. Staff are on-site 24/7 to assist vulnerable people with complex needs, helping them regain stability, build independence, and improve their quality of life.
Dave Newmarch, Framework’s Director of Property and Housing Services, commented:
Thank you to everyone involved in bringing this important development forward. Our new site will significantly enhance the support available to people in Lincoln experiencing homelessness, providing 20 high-quality units along with trained staff on-site 24 hours a day to offer care, stability, and a clear pathway towards independence.
Gelder Group CEO Steve Gelder added:
Delivering Sincil House for Framework Housing Association was a pleasure, and we are delighted to be working with them again. This new development on Carholme Road represents an even larger complex, helping more people in Lincoln to access the support and accommodation they need.
