Plans for a new housing development could be a 'golden opportunity' to bring 'something special' in the Gedling borough. A planning application was submitted for around eight homes and dozens of flats on vacant land next to the Pepperpots site in Mapperley Plains, Mapperley, back in 2021, with a decision on the plans due to be made by Gedling Borough Council in the next few months.
The site has been vacant for a number of years but was formerly the home of Gedling Colliery.
It was previously reported the homes, if given planning approval, would be built on a section of grassland which runs parallel to Mapperley Plains and would be situated on both sides of the new Gedling Access Road (GAR) junction.
