Applicant Shropshire Homes has lodged a hybrid planning application for a scheme which includes a request for full permission for 102 homes and an 80-bedroom care home on land on Mytton Oak Road in Bowbrook to the west of the town centre.

An outline application for a further 298 residential properties set to be built in later phases of development is also included in part of the scheme.

A multi-phased development would provide “comprehensive and co-ordinated development of the site as a whole”, the developers said in supporting documentation.

“The proposals seek to provide a sensitive, high quality development on the edge of Shrewsbury that is both physically and socially integrated with the town,” said a planning statement submitted with the plans.
