VILLAGERS will have to wait another month before a decision on controversial plans for a housing development.

Two detached homes and 14 town houses could be created at Croft House, Hurworth Place, were to be decided on by Darlington Borough Council yesterday -but Hurworth Parish Council was told the scheme would not be considered for another month.

Both residents and the Environment Agency were concerned over flooding.

The council will now decide at its June planning meeting.
