POTENTIAL sites for development in the town have been highlighted by Redditch Council.

Councillors on the development committee will decide next week whether seven plots of land should be set aside for houses.

The plots are in or near Birmingham Road, Edgmond Close in Winyates, Hindlip Close in Winyates Green, Torrs Close behind Mount Pleasant Garage, Berkeley Close in Winyates Green and Berkswell Close in Church Hill North.

If councillors agree, the plots of land will be sold off for development.

But the council's planning committee could still refuse planning applications if it decides against a scheme.
