Would be ok in a metropolitan area, whereby the second bedroom could be rented out to a flate mate, but Clayton is not that unfortunately. Main road too. So feel best decision for this developer.

As per Councillor Prichard "little boxes", I thought that new housing developments had to provide Off Road parking, think that will be very difficult there on the main road. Would it not have been better to povide a first floor flat leaving the ground floor for a retail outlet?
