Sustainable Housing

Housing contributes a huge proportion of our carbon emissions, in both its construction and its occupation. If you are planning to renovate or build in St Merryn, either as a developer or a self-builder, there are many organisations out there offering advice. Contact us if you would like details.

A good source of information is the Cornwall Sustainable Building Trust. You could also consult the Cornwall Sustainable Building Guide, soon to be available from Cornwall County Council. Its intended readership includes anyone planning a new build, a renovation, a conversion or an upgrade of their home.
