A HOUSING firm wants to build nine new houses in Quarrier's Village.

Developers Berkley Homes Ltd have placed a planning application with Inverclyde Council for the former Carsemeadow School.

Their planning documents state: "The proposed residential use will be entirely in-keeping with the established character and existing residential amenity and the proposal has been designed to minimise the impacts on the amenity of the adjacent existing dwellings in terms of privacy and overlooking."
