Description
Situation: The Cressage Village Site measures 0.28 acres (0.11 ha). It is a potential infill site suitable for residential development in the heart of Cressage.
The site does not benefit from residential planning permission but inroads have been made and it has been established that Cressage is proposed to be a Hub in the draft new Local Plan with potential for some 80 dwellings. Two sites are identified with the balance made up by infill sites. This site clearly has potential in this regard.
Cressage is a village and civil parish in Shropshire and located under 10 miles southeast of Shrewsbury. It lies on the junction of the A458 and B4380 roads. The River Severn flows around its northern boundary.
