How was the self-build managed?
The project was managed by HHP as a self-build. Hockerton Housing Partnership was set up as a temporary legal entity to manage the construction of the development. All families involved had one adult represented as a partner. Project members were responsible for about 50% of build, the remaining work being contracted to local labour and specialists. One of the project members, Nick Martin, an experienced builder of low-energy buildings, acted as a project manager.
