Plans have been submitted to build more than 200 homes in Wolverhampton.

Persimmon Homes wants to build 208 properties off Bean Road in Coseley as part of its wider Coseley New Village project.

A feature would be "multiple contributions to the improvement of local education, highways and sports pitches in the local area", a spokesperson said.

The 208 properties would form part of the final section of the wider development, the firm stated, adding the latest approved phase was for the former Phoenix Collegiate site, off Friar Park Road in Wednesbury nearby.

"We will continue to work closely with Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council during the planning stages to hopefully ensure we gain consent for what will be much needed homes in the area," the spokesperson said.
