Dozens of new ‘family’ homes have been approved for a former industrial site in Ashton-under-Lyne.
Tameside council’s planning committee has given the green light to plans to develop 32 homes across a mix of house types on land at Fern Lodge Drive. Wiggett Homes applied to build a mix of three and four bedroom properties, set across two and three storeys.
The access would be taken from the head of Fern Lodge Drive. All of the properties would have two off road parking spaces. The site had historically been within the Hurst and Stamford Mills complex, and until 1999 supported a reservoir as a legacy of the former cotton spinning operations.
