Scheme to build five houses on land behind shops has not gone down well with some in Cleethorpes

The line of shops, eateries  and other businesses on Middlethorpe Road

                                                              

A PROPOSAL to build a terrace of five two-storey houses on land behind a group of shops in Cleethorpes has sparked protests.

Humberston man Jaswinder Dhallai has earmarked a potholed car park behind the popular shops on Middlethorpe Road for the development.

But some neighbours insist the site is important for parking by shop staff and for service vehicles and deliveries.

Although there is a car park at the front of the premises, they doubt whether it has the capacity to accommodate extra vehicles.

Mr Dhallai's  application is currently  under consideration by North East Lincolnshire Council's planning department with a decision unlikely much before Easter. 

Behind the shops is the site where the Humberston man would like to build the terrace of two-storey houses
