More than 200 houses could be added to an 'up and coming' Nottinghamshire town. A total of 210 new houses could be placed on land behind Mill Hill Lane and The Old Park in Cotgrave, Nottinghamshire, if plans are approved at Rushcliffe Borough Council's planning committee on Thursday, June 9.
The fresh proposals, which include new vehicular access, highway works, pedestrian and cycle links, are recommended to be approved by the council. Up to 21 of the new houses are proposed to be affordable.
Businesses in the area said the plans were a sign of progress in the town. Lee Cottingham, 54, who is a partner at electrical engineering firm Brian Cottingham & Son, said: "Cotgrave is an up and coming place, I think it is a good thing for the area. It might overlook a few people's houses but I don't think it's a bad idea.
