Miller proposes 120 Widnes homes
Around 12 acres off Prescot Road could be redeveloped under proposals lodged with Halton Council.
Miller Homes wants to build a mix of houses on a privately owned part of the wider Pex Hill playing fields site, which abuts the Liverpool to Manchester railway line to the south.
The part of the site earmarked for development has not been used as playing fields for more than 10 years, according to a planning statement prepared by NJL Consulting.
Land to the east and west of the development site currently used for rugby and football does not feature within the scope of Miller’s plans.
The developer plans to provide 25% of the 120 properties on affordable tenures.
Designed by Hope Architects, the scheme would likely feature a mix of two-, three-, four-, and five-bedroom houses.
