Sheffield Approves Construction of Ten New Homes Near Darnall Station

Sheffield City Council has approved plans for the construction of ten new homes on a parcel of disused land adjacent to the Darnall railway station. This development will take place on scrubland located behind 6 to 30 Pool Place, between Cresswell Road and Prince of Wales Road in the Darnall area.
The approved project will feature a variety of residential properties, including two-bedroom semi-detached, three-bedroom semi-detached, and four-bedroom detached homes. Initially, the proposal included plans for twelve dwellings; however, this was revised down to ten units following community feedback.
Development Details and Community Response
A new access road, measuring 5.5 metres in width, will be constructed from Cresswell Road. The project will also include a 1.8-metre footpath and landscaped boundaries to enhance the visual appeal of the area. Parking will be available either on private driveways or in small parking courts, ensuring that each home benefits from its own private garden space.
Despite the council’s approval, the proposal faced several objections from local residents. Concerns raised included potential tree removal, increased noise and dust during construction, loss of privacy, traffic congestion, and the perception of overdevelopment in the area. Nonetheless, the council determined that the benefits of the housing project outweighed these concerns.
The decision reflects Sheffield City Council’s ongoing commitment to addressing housing shortages in the region while balancing community needs. As urban development continues to evolve, this project represents a significant step towards providing more housing options for residents in the Darnall area.
