Melton Grove bungalows

Some elderly residents at a bungalow complex in Lytham say they're angry the local council intends to sell it, despite it being gifted to the authority.

Some elderly residents at a bungalow complex in Lytham say they're angry the local council intends to sell it, despite it being gifted to the authority. The sale of the 20 bungalows at Melton Grove could raise more than 拢1m. The complex was left to Fylde Council by the Clifton family nearly 50 years ago, to provide accommodation for retired people with little money. Patricia Fieldhouse, the chairman of the board that runs the homes, says selling the bungalows is the best way to improve them for the residents.
