Plans to create dozens of new homes on a derelict site were met with excitement by a Nottingham community - but some are still on the fence with the proposal of a new supermarket being built in the neighbourhood. It comes as a planning application has been submitted to build 62 new homes on a vacant site in Bestwood.
The proposals have been submitted on September 21. A new Lidl and dozens of homes could be built on the 1.6 hectares former site of Chronos Richardson Ltd in Belconnen Road if the plans get the green light.
The erection of a new Lidl in the area has been described as a 'major development' in the application, and the supermarket would also come with a car park. However, neighbours living in flats in Wyton Close, near the vacant site, said they already have "too many supermarkets here".
