Concerns over plans for new estate

The area of 27-acres (10.96 ha) has been earmarked for new housing on Jacksons Lane in Hazel Grove, based opposite Hazel Grove High School and to the west of Norbury Farm Shop.

It would see a mix of one to five-bedroom houses built on the land, with proposals for half of the new homes to be designated as 'affordable' housing.

The proposed homes would be based on around 10-acres of land at the northern section of the site near Jacksons Lane, with the southern part kept as open space alongside planting and play areas.

The land is currently 'in agricultural use' according to planning reports.

House builder Taylor Wimpey has submitted its scheme to Stockport council for consideration.
