An application for outline planning permission to build nine new homes on the land to the north of Winston Fields in Tetchill near Ellesmere was submitted to Shropshire Council in September.

The new homes would have extended a recent development of ten houses, built on land currently in use for agricultural purposes.

The agents, Roger Parry & Partners, submitting the plans on behalf of applicant S.F. Jones, said the loss of the land "is not significant" nor would the proposal "result in any adverse ecological or environmental implications".
