Green light given to Hednesford housing development
More than 200 homes will be built on land in Hednesford after the proposal was given the green light by community leaders.
Outline plans to build 219 homes on land north of Limepit Lane and west of Pye Green Road were approved last year.
And at Cannock Chase Council's planning control committee this week, members gave the final nod to the Barratt Homes development at their latest meeting.
It came despite concern from Hednesford Town Council, which raised concerns over the number of homes. It also said the layout represented an 'over intensive development of the site' and would lead to traffic chaos.
The plans state that 14 per cent of the development would be affordable housing, accounting for 31 homes.
All the properties will have between two and five bedrooms.
