Angry residents slam plans to build major new housing development on their doorstep

Residents have hit out at plans to build a new housing development on their doorstep.

Anwyl Homes have submitted proposals to build 65 homes on a field off Wilbraham Road. The developer is seeking to redevelop the 2.2-hectare site, which is owned by the Greater Manchester Youth Foundation (GMYF) and sits next to Maine Road FC's Brantingham Road ground, into a residential development

However, nearby residents have slammed the plans, claiming the build would result in many negative impacts on the community, such as overdevelopment, lack of green space, pollution and noise impacts, and flooding concerns.
