People have shared their hopes for housing developments to clear up a former school site they say is a 'mess'. If approved by Broxtowe Borough Council's planning committee on Tuesday, June 28, 60 assisted living apartments would be built on the former site of Lynncroft Primary School in Walker Street, Eastwood.
The application is recommended to be granted planning permission, subject to conditions. There are plans for 110 houses on the rest of the old school site which have already been approved.
Locals were enthusiastic about the works, which they said would make use of the vacant land. Judith Naylor, 71, who has lived in Eastwood for most her life, said: “I think it would be good for the area, with more people around. The field isn't actually doing anything at the moment.
