“This is a Reserved Matters application for approval of layout, scale, appearance and landscaping details for 141 dwellings pursuant to outline planning permission ref: 21/00790/AS which was approved at appeal, ref APP/E2205/W/21/3284479.”

“The proposals are for a mix of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 bed dwellings comprising mainly of detached dwellings, with some semi-detached and terraced dwellings. There are also a small number of flats over garages (FOG) type units and 1 bed maisonettes. The dwellings are two-storeys in height apart from five single- storey bungalows. 50% of the dwellings are proposed to be affordable housing, as required by the outline planning permission.”

There are a few trees on-site and off-site trees (some of which overhang the application site boundary) that are subject to Tree Preservation Orders.”

The conservation area then stretches away from the site to the north-west, west and south. The nearest listed buildings are Stace House, a 2.5 storey dwelling located just beyond the south-western corner of the application site at the junction between Beacon Oak Road and Woodchurch Road.”
