Planning permission for 120 new homes
The Nottingham County Council have granted planning permission for 120 homes development close to Cowlick Loop Road in Gedling.
The development would be based to the south of Burton Road, across from the playing fields of Carlton le Willows Academy, whiles its eastern boundary would border the busy link road.
The scheme is being submitted in its reserved matters stage after councillors previously approved outline permission for the development in January 2021.
The proposals debated by councillors involved the development’s layout, scale, landscaping and appearance.
The majority of existing trees and hedgerows are expected to be retained, with more trees and hedges planted.
The overall development proposes a range of two, three and four-bedroom terraced, semi-detached and detached houses, including two wheelchair-accessible bungalows.
Ten letters of objection were sent to Gedling Borough Council in response to the plans, all from neighbours on existing streets such as Linden Grove.
Concerns have been raised about the loss of greenbelt land, the impact of this development and the ongoing Gedling Access Road works, its impact on ecology, traffic and potential flooding.
