A report prepared on behalf of Taylor Wimpey by the Halcrow Group says: "The proposed development will significantly improve and regenerate a brownfield site that has been derelict for a considerable amount of time.
"Positive steps have been taken to ensure the site complements and contributes to the surrounding urban character and environment."
The properties would range from one-bedroom apartments to four-bedroom detached homes.
