Deals which would see housing associations take over a number of council-owned properties are set to be agreed by councillors on Thursday.

A former janitor’s house for Whitehill Secondary School is also expected to be sold, with Milnbank Housing Association set to pay £225,000.

Currently in “a very poor condition”, the 34-bedroom care home has been “the target of vandalism while being vacant”, council officials have reported. A final price for the purchase has yet to be confirmed as site investigations have not been carried out.
