There are plans to retain a new site for travellers in a village near Ledbury.

Edward Jones has submitted the proposals to change the use of grazing land at Greenacres Stiffords Bridge in Cradley.

He wants permission to station mobile homes and touring caravans on the site and build a toilet block.

The part-retrospective scheme also includes a new access track, parking, fencing, and lighting.

Residents have until July 24 to comment on the proposals which Herefordshire Council is expected to consider by August 18.
