150 homes plan for derelict site in Walsall given go-ahead
A plan to transform disused land which has suffered with anti-social behaviour into a large housing scheme has been given the go-ahead.
Avant Homes will build 150 new homes on five acres of derelict space between Harden Road and Whateley Road in Blakenall now that approval has been granted.
Outline permission was previously granted and now planning officers at Walsall Council have given the thumbs up to a ‘reserved matters application’ which means they are happy with the scale, layout, appearance and landscaping of the scheme.
The land is designated as Green Belt but the developers said it has been derelict for a number of years and said this presented a good opportunity to transform it.
