Ruby Crescent – named by pupils from nearby Dales Park School in commemoration of the school’s 40th anniversary – and the extension to Dales View Drive provide over 30 new houses to Aberdeenshire Council’s housing stock.
Commenting, Stewart Stevenson said:
“I’m very pleased the Housing Minister has found himself in Peterhead again so soon after his visit a few weeks ago launching yet another new development of social housing.
“The SNP Scottish Government has ambitious plans to deliver 50,000 new rental homes before the end of the current Parliament. I’m pleased to see Peterhead benefitting from that ambition.”

Peterhead South & Cruden SNP councillor Stephen Smith, who attended today’s launch added:
“I’m delighted to see yet another new social housing development completed in Peterhead.
“The shortage of council housing caused by the selling-off of stock under previous Tory Government’s caused huge difficulties for councils and those looking for affordable rented accommodation. There’s a long way to go to redress that but this latest development is very welcome and makes a huge difference to tenants’ lives.”
