Plans for five new family houses have been submitted for a plot of land between Henconner Lane and Greenhill Primary School.
Applicant John Cliff, of Rawdon-based EP Homes, has applied to build three three-bedroom and two four-bedroom houses on the site. All properties would include driveways and garages
The plans include access via a private drive access road off Henconner Lane, and there would be parking for 16 cars.
A design and access statement submitted by designers DEN Architecture said the proposal made a ‘positive contribution to its locality and added: “The site makes best use of a unused derelict site to create a high quality residential development which is sympathetic to and consistent with the context of the surrounding area.
“The proposal provides a much-needed mix of house types in this location.”
There are currently two houses on the site, one of which is extensively fire damaged.
Applicant EP Homes is behind the new housing development next to Greenside Tunnel, off Carlisle Road in Pudsey.
