A HOUSEBUILDER has said it will underpin 580 new jobs in Cheshire. 2021 will see Barratt Homes develop new sites in Appleton Cross and Macclesfield start to progress with residents settling into their new homes. It plans to build 290 new properties in the county at its developments: Orchard Meadows and Silk Waters Green phase three. As the housebuilder typically sources local contractors and subcontractors, a total of 580 new jobs have been created across the developments. Neil Goodwin, managing director at Barratt Homes Manchester, said: “As the leading housebuilder, we have an obligation to provide support and facilities for the local community. This can take the form of open spaces for wildlife, playgrounds for children, beneficial amenities for residents or charitable donations for the wider community.
