The former Shrewsbury Tesco has since been demolished
A public consultation has been launched on plans to build more than 100 homes on the site of a former Tesco store in Shrewsbury.
Taylor Wimpey is hoping to build 106 properties on the site in Arlington Way, with 14 designated as affordable homes.
It has now lodged an official planning application with Shropshire Council, with members of the public being given the chance to have their say on the proposals until August 5.
A report prepared on behalf of Taylor Wimpey by the Halcrow Group says: “The proposed development will significantly improve and regenerate a brownfield site that has been derelict for a considerable amount of time.
“Positive steps have been taken to ensure the site complements and contributes to the surrounding urban character and environment.”
The properties would range from one-bedroom apartments to four-bedroom detached homes.

Hang on a minute, didn’t Shropshire Council say that most of the new housing over the next 10 years is going to be in the west of the town, hence we need to close Wakeman and build a new school in the west. Hmmmmm. Let me think – Gay Meadow, Spring Gardens, Coton Hill and now the old Tesco site. I think somebody in Shropshire Council’s education department needs to take his compass to the menders.

its not the compass that needs fixing, we dont need more houses, we need more common sense.
