The development was rejected primarily due to the lack of social housing. Councillors were also concerned that without the details of the plans for the ground floor it was difficult to fully understand the impact of the entire development of the site.

Thanks to Councillor Paschoud who spoke against the application, and nice to meet DerbyHillTop.

Let's hope that a new application come forward soon that reduces the number of units and provides better quality of accommodation, as well as providing some social housing (such as part buy part rent) on the site.
