Developers have submitted plans to build nearly 700 homes on a former golf course in Salford. Housebuilders Bellway and Countryside acquired the old Brackley Golf Course in Little Hulton for £40m last year.

The housebuilders have now submitted initial proposals to construct 345 homes each on the 66-acre site. The two companies agreed to buy the land for £39.3m in November last year.
