More than 150 homes will be built in a Nottinghamshire town after plans were given the go ahead. A total of 169 homes will be built on land off Old Newark Road and Redruth Drive, Mansfield, after Mansfield District Council gave permission for the project at a planning committee on November 21.
The application was first presented to the planning committee in 2020 but was deferred pending further investigations into the potential option of Sherwood Avenue to the east being used as site access. The housing development will include 124 two, three, and four-bedroom houses and 45 flats.
A variety of open spaces were included in the plans, with informal recreation spaces and green spaces outlined in planning documents. There will also be play areas, skateboard parks, and outdoor basketball hoops for children.
