Plans for a new housing estate to be built on protected green land have been approved despite more than 150 objections. Developer Miller Homes has been granted permission to build 42 ‘family’ houses on land behind Denbigh Drive in High Crompton.

The land is allocated as ‘other protected open land’ (OPOL), which is less protected than green belt but is recognised as important as ‘it helps preserve the distinctiveness of an area’.
