A Labour Party candidate is amongst those expressing frustration over plans to build more than 780 homes on green belt land.
Last week, Leverhulme submitted seven planning applications to Wirral Council to deliver homes in what it calls “beautiful and sustainable communities”. If approved by the council, the homes will be built across sites in South Wirral and West Wirral.
The estate owns thousands of acres of land, but the decision to build on green space has proved controversial, with an online petition against the development having racked up 4,057 signatures at the time of writing.
