Residents of the growing Killams Park housing development in Taunton can now benefit from enhanced health services thanks to recent upgrades at their nearest GP surgery. Summerfield Homes is nearing completion of the Killams Park project, which comprises 315 homes and a 66-bed care home located on Killams Drive, at the southern edge of Somerset’s county town. The development, approved by Taunton Deane Borough Council in December 2013, committed to delivering 25% affordable housing—equivalent to 79 units—and allocated funding for a new primary school.
