A former industrial site in Lichfield could be transformed if plans for 99 new homes are approved.

The land off Eastern Avenue was previously home to Hepworth Building Products.

A previous plan to build 77 homes on the site had been approved by the Government’s Planning Inspectorate after being blocked by Lichfield District Council.

But developers now hope to get permission for an additional 22 properties.

Access to the new properties would be on Watery Lane.

The plans would see a mix of two and three bedroom houses along with one four bed property. There would also be 13 one bedroom apartments.

Nineteen are currently being designated as “affordable rented units” while 35 properties will be available under a shared ownership scheme.

Full details of the proposals can be seen on Lichfield District Council’s plannning website.
