More than 30 retirement homes could be built in Heswall, after a developer released details of plans it claims will provide “high quality” accommodation for those who want to live independently.
McCarthy Stone wants to build 37 homes “specially designed to meet the needs of people in later life” just off Well Lane in the Wirral town. Ian Wilkins, from McCarthy Stone, said: “Our plans provide a fantastic opportunity to deliver much-needed Retirement Living accommodation and regenerate a brownfield site.
“The site is ideally located for residents to access local shops and services, with a town centre bus and train station providing transport links across the wider region.” Mr Wilkins said the firm was proposing a “sensitive design” which “respects the character of the local area”.
