“As the largest self-built community in the UK has really started to operate, we are now starting to focus on more projects. I am also very happy to see other pilot projects such as Glasgow in this series.

“Self-built and custom construction will continue to exist, and at this rate, they will make a huge contribution to the supply of housing in the UK.”

Channel 4 commissioned editor Ian Dunkley (Ian Dunkley) added: “These two new series of Grand Designs: The Street will capture the community spirit of these incredible self-built streets, because the construction The determination, resilience, and ambition of the creator shine, creating something extraordinary.”
