The multi-million-pound investment will transform the former Carrongrove Paper Mill site in Denny.

Developers McTaggart & Mickel had their ambitious scheme rubber-stamped by Falkirk Council's planning committee last Wednesday.

The huge 15-hectare site will now be transformed to accommodate housing and small businesses.

More than 100 houses and 65 flats are planned – including affordable flats and family homes which will be offered to council house tenants.

The historic Carrongrove House will also be saved from the bulldozers and converted for business use.
