Work is well underway on nine new canalside townhouses being built in Warwick.

Planning permission for the 'Emscote Old Wharf' development alongside the Grand Union Canal was granted by Warwick District Council in 2019.

And at the start of June last year Cotswold Oak Ltd announced that it had begun work on site.

The site will also see four new canalside offices built which are currently on the market with property agent Peter Clarke.

If bought individually they will cost between £220,000 and £245,000.

The advert says: "Emscote Old Wharf is a quality canalside courtyard development by well respected builders, Cotswold Oak Ltd, comprising nine canalside townhouses, together with four self-contained offices with associated parking. 

"The offices front the Emscote Road, however, vehicular access is via the courtyard and All Saints Road.

"Each office is self-contained, situated in a three-storey building with the offices being on the first and second floors with undercroft parking below. 

"They will be built to a high office specification with individual WC, gas central heating, flooring and compliant lighting, together with perimeter trunking."

A former hand car wash was demolished to make way for the houses early last year.

And as part of the scheme a new access road will be built off All Saints Road - closing the former entrance off Emscote Road.

Photographs sent to Nub News by local resident Geoff Ousbey show the work underway.
