A plan for the construction of 10 homes closes to Moses Gate train station was given the green light by the council. The applicant, DOI Construction, applied for planning permission for a site on Lorne Street on October 30 last year. The plan for the construction of 10 homes includes a pair of semi-detached properties and two terraces of four properties.

All of them are two storeys with parking spaces at the front and outdoor spaces at the rear. Previously the council said the site on Lorne Street was suitable for a total of eight homes but the application by DOI Construction said a total of 10 homes was in accordance with all of the relevant policies as well.
