A derelict piece of land in Telford could be turned into supported living accommodation if plans are approved.
The former Queens Head site on the junction of Moss Road and Rookery Road in Wrockwardine Wood, has been chosen by a developer to build 13 supported living apartments.
A planning and affordable housing statement submitted by the developer said: “Build Fifty5’s transitional living schemes are designed with a wide range of occupants in mind, particularly vulnerable persons, young people leaving care and those with mental and physical disabilities. The plans include a communal outdoor space with a pergola next to a protected monkey puzzle tree, retained and managed as part of the proposals. The outdoor area is considered to encourage social interaction and exclusivity for residents.
