Newark and Sherwood District Council planning portal flooded with concerns over plans for over 20 homes down narrow lane

Multiple complaints have been lodged over plans for more than 20 homes down a narrow lane prone to accidents.

At least 40 comments of concern have been uploaded to Newark and Sherwood District Council’s planning portal over an application to build 21 eco entry-level affordable dwellings.

The plan is for land off Carlton Lane, Sutton-on-Trent, which is in flood zone three — the most at risk of flooding.
