PLANS to demolish one of Barnsley's most eye-catching properties and replace it with five new homes are to be considered by council planners.

An application submitted to the council asks for permission to to knock down the house known as Four Corners on Dodworth Road close to the motorway roundabout and build five four and five bedroom homes with garages on the plot of land behind it.

The present occupier of the characterful flat-roofed house did not wish to comment.
