Bury in Lancashire, UK.
Green Cottage is the private terraced house in East Bury of Andy Hunt and Gaynor Clarkson.
As a member of the Bury Solar Club, our home Green Cottage is equipped with all the latest energy technology and conservation methods, and is a suggestion for a typical terraced house in East Bury with energy efficiency and renewable energy measures. In these pages, we aim to show what can be done in a resource-poor and climate-changed 21st century with a very ordinary house!
Take the Tour!
Green Cottage is just a short cycle ride or walk away from the beautiful river Roche riverside walk in Pimhole, sponsored by the East Bury Initiative, as well as Openshaw Park, where the East Bury Initiative has provided a park ranger.
