Hermit Mews comprises 11 new homes on a former garage site in Lincoln city centre.

The scheme was designed and built by Lindum Group on behalf of City of Lincoln Council.

It includes five two-bedroom homes and six three-bedroom homes, along with 31 parking bays and eight garages. It was jointly funded by the Council and Homes England’s Affordable Homes 2021-2026 Programme.

On completion, the scheme was awarded Secured by Design (SBD) Gold standard, in recognition of the high-quality security measures it incorporates.

Lincolnshire Police said the design will help to reduce the risk of crime and improve peace of mind for local residents.
