New industrial units will likely be built on the site of a former factory after planning officers recommended the plans for approval.
Telford & Wrekin's planning committee is set to give the green light for the building of five units at Hadley Castle Works, the former home of Telford factory GKN Sankey, when it meets next week.
The proposal quickly attracted several objections, including from Hadley and Leegomery Parish Council who objected to the height of the buildings, the increase in traffic and the impact on the Grade II listed locks. But the report, which will be presented at the planning meeting, stresses that the council"will not support development that would detract from or damage the setting of a listed building".The documents state that the setting of the historical locks has already been"harmed... to some degree" with the loss of their original agricultural setting and the surrounding modern housing estate.
The report added:"Officers would re-iterate that the application site is located within the Strategic Employment Area, where this form of development is directed to within the Local Plan.
