New Darwen show homes receive a civic welcome
30 Jul 2026

Cooper Fields has opened its state-of-the-art show homes, with Blackburn with Darwen Council invited to celebrate.

On 4th June, the Leader of Blackburn with Darwen Council, Councillor Phil Riley, and Growth Manager, Subhan Ali, joined the Linden Homes teams to launch the long-awaited show homes at the Holden Fold development. The development then hosted a summer show home weekend on 6th and 7th June to welcome interested buyers for the very first time. 

Leader of Blackburn with Darwen Council, Cllr Phil Riley said: ‘’We are committed to creating high-quality homes that meet the needs of our residents, while also supporting wider regeneration and economic growth. It’s about building places that people are proud to live in - with strong communities at their heart. We’ve made real progress in recent years, and schemes like this show our determination to keep that momentum going and deliver lasting, positive change for Blackburn with Darwen. We’re creating a more prosperous borough, and it does feel like Blackburn with Darwen is very much the place to be.’’

Gareth Roberts, Managing Director at Vistry Merseyside and Cheshire West, commented: "It was a real privilege to officially launch our new show homes at Cooper Fields with the Council on 4th June. Civic support is always greatly appreciated as we continue to work together to bring much-needed homes to the area.

“In the following days, we were able to showcase our properties to buyers for the first time. We saw a great turnout, with many now confident in the quality, finish, and support provided by Linden."

The new show homes at Cooper Fields mark the first properties from the national brand in the area. All visitors to the development can now view the two-bedroom Sweetpea, the four-bedroom Lavender and the four-bedroom Dahlia, all expertly designed by Chapter 9 to demonstrate modern living with first-time buyers in mind.

Cooper Fields is currently offering a great mix of two, three and four-bedroom homes, with prices starting at £200,000.
