The planning permission relates to the fifth phase of works within Area 11 of the WEA and comprises plots 3C, 3D, 5D,5E 5F and LC.
The 240 dwellings are made up of one and two bedroom apartments, together with three, four and five bedroom houses.

This was followed by a further 262 dwellings on parcels 3B, 4B and 5C, which gained approval on July 30, 2015.
