A developer named in planning papers as D Ward has applied for outline permission to build on land behind number 52 - 56 Wootton Road at Gaywood, in King's Lynn.

A planning statement says: "This is a highly sustainable location being in easy walking distance of all the facilities that Gaywood has to offer and on a regular bus route connecting to the town centre, railway station and Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

"This is a windfall site which will contribute towards the provision of housing in the borough."

It adds part of the site is a former garden area which is "redundant and has become somewhat overgrown".

It says two one or two-bed homes could be built on the site without affecting neighbouring properties.
