Named after the physicist and astronomer Norman Lockyer, who lived in Sidmouth for many years in the early 1900s, the new Churchill Lodge will offer the over 60s a chance to acquire one of the 40 purpose-built one- or two-bedroom retirement apartments.

Caroline Haswell, regional marketing manager for Churchill Retirement Living said: "We are thrilled to be launching a new lodge in Sidford. Our properties offer security and independent living, along with community and support".
