Plans for a green belt development have received strong opposition due to residents’ concerns it would remove “productive farmland”
Plans for an 800-home development on 52 hectares of green belt land in Shropshire have received 1,117 objections as the consultation period comes to a close.
If approved, the plan brought forward by Wolverhampton-based housebuilder Boningale Homes, would deliver 800 homes, a care home of up to 80 units, a secondary school and local centre with infrastructure, landscaping and drainage in Albrighton village, East Shropshire.
The objections raised concerns about increased traffic, road closures, and added strain on already overburdened medical and transport infrastructure, as well as a potential negative impact on the high street.
