Villagers have voiced worries over whether their home can deal with the largest housebuilding project it has seen in decades. In Cropwell Bishop 85 homes are currently being built off Church Street, with residents now questioning the impact of the properties as new homeowners move into the small village.
The homes, which a few residents have now moved into, sit between a sewage plant and the Cropwell Bishop School. A new access point to the school and a new roundabout on Church Street were included as part of the plans.
Jeremy Weinberg, 52, and Eleanor Weinberg, 44, who objected the building of the houses next door to their home on Church Street said they still had concerns despite the development turning out better than expected. Mr Weinberg, who works as a computer developer, said: "It is quite a lot for a small village and we were dead against it.
