Plans submitted to build 28 homes in Bishop Monkton
Developers have submitted plans to build 28 homes in the village of Bishop Monkton, near Ripon.
Kebbell Development, which is based in Buckinghamshire, has lodged the proposal for land at Knaresborough Road in the village.
The plans submitted to Harrogate Borough Council would see two, three, four and five-bedroom homes built on the site.
In its plans, the developer said 40% of the homes proposed for the site would be allocated to affordable housing.

It added that the homes would be in keeping with the local area and that the development will “positively contribute” to the community.
A decision on the proposal will be made by the council at a later date.
The development comes after Alfa Homes, a sister company of Wetherby-based developer Berkeley DeVeer, lodged plans for 98 homes in the village.
The 98 homes have been proposed for the western edge of the village on Knaresborough Road and Moor Road.
