Plans have been lodged to build 130 affordable homes on the bank of a river.

Stewart Milne Homes has applied to build the properties on the site of a former pipe yard on Abbotswell Road, on the south bank of the River Dee.

The firm previously gained planning permission for a 100-home development, including 24 affordable flats.

But the developer has said they intend to provide a 100% affordable development due to “changing market conditions” and a “desire to deliver much needed affordable housing”.
