Better facilities will be in store for gipsies if a bid for planning permission to slash the number of plots at a Stourport site is successful.

Worcestershire County Council aims to reduce the plots from 30 to 17 at Lower Heath Gipsy Site in Watery Lane as part of a scheme to refurbish amenity units and carry out landscaping.

It said in a statement to Wyre Forest District Council's planning (development control) committee the reduction would mean better facilities for the remaining ones.
