Plans by Graham’s the Family Dairy to build 600 homes on Airthrey Kerse between Bridge of Allan and Stirling have been rejected by Scottish ministers.
The company wants to use money made from the housing development, which includes plans for 150 affordable homes, a new primary school and public park, to fund a £20m dairy plant at Craigforth.
Stirling Council had initially refused Graham’s plans in 2017 on the grounds that houses would be sited on greenbelt along with concerns about flooding and other issues before the application was referred to the Scottish Government.
