Search the Public Notice PortalA bid to build a new housing estate in a small Norfolk village has been backed despite locals fearing they could face lengthy disruptions.
Woodton Parish Council has said that building new homes at the northern edge of the village is "unacceptable" for people living there.
Work has already started on building 50 new homes on a different development in Church Road, but now neighbours will have to put up with noise from more construction.
Despite this, officials at South Norfolk Council have backed plans by developer Esco Prospect to build another eight houses in the street.
The scheme will contribute to the authority’s five-year housing land supply, which it is currently unable to demonstrate.
The officials argue the homes will be a positive addition to the village.
They add that building more properties is unlikely to encroach on the countryside visually as the estate is already surrounded by houses.
