MUCH-disputed plans to develop Sandford Farm in Woodley were given the go-ahead last night.

Wokingham Borough Council planning committee voted unanimously in favour of granting outline permission to build 468 homes, a 150-unit retirement community, a community centre and shops and offices on the former landfill site in Mohawk Way.

Councillors also approved an application from developers Taylor Wimpey for remediation work to be carried out on the site following a debate which lasted more than two hours.
