Plans for more than 100 homes in Wakefield have been given the green light.

Wakefield councillors have approved proposals by Persimmon Homes for 103 new homes on Mayfields Way, South Kirkby.

The site is allocated for housing development in the Wakefield Local Plan, and the scheme will see a range of two, three and four-bedroom homes built. All of these homes will be fitted with electric vehicle chargers and air source heat pumps.
