An application by the Leverhulme Estate for a natural green space supporting its controversial housing plans has been rejected.
Leverhulme Estate put in eight housing applications this year for more than 1,000 homes on countryside in Wirral. The plans have proven controversial with thousands signing petitions, protests and s even out of eight applications have been rejected so far. The eighth is to be decided in February.
Leverhulme said the new green space would open up public access to 22.6 hectares of land and more than 3km of new walking routes to connect Pensby and Barnston.
