The residents of a Nottingham village fear it is expanding 'too much' as hundreds of homes are planned. Broxtowe Borough Council granted permission on February 1 for 169 homes to be built on greenfield land off Coventry Lane, Bramcote, to the north west of Bramcote Crematorium.
On the other side of Coventry Lane plans were submitted in December last year to construct 473 homes on land previously used as a playing field for Bramcote School. Some villagers thought the total amount of new homes could overwhelm the area.
Graham Smith, 63, who is retired who lives in Bramcote, said: "This is too much, it is a lovely place at the moment because on one side you have the city and then you have countryside on the other side.
