An outline planning application to build homes on greenfield land to the northwest of Sheriffhales, near Shifnal, has been submitted to Shropshire Council.

The proposal, prepared by Shrewsbury-based Base Architecture and Design on behalf of the applicant, seeks consent for the demolition of one home to make way for access to the 16 new houses.

The development would comprise two-, three- and four-bedroom properties, with four of the homes being made available for affordable home ownership.
