The final parcel of land with no planning permission at the AMP may become home to seven new units of varying sizes, for “flexible high quality business, manufacturing and office floorspace.”

Rotherham Council received 19 objections from nearby residents, on the grounds of increased traffic and pollution, the proximity to residents homes, loss of woodland, and house prices falling due to the development.

Planning documents state that “the exact layout of the development has not been finalised and as the proposed development will come forward on a phased basis, which will be occupier led, the exact drainage and flood risk details are not certain at this stage.”
