Moorhouse Farm, Stannington Station (brownfield parcel)

Notes

Site occupied by a farm shop and cafe, along with former agricultural buildings and associated land. This is a mixed site comprising both brownfield and greenfield land, but the latter is beyond the settlement limit and not considered suitable. The site has been promoted for redevelopment a number of years ago, but the existing business remains in situ. Overall SHLAA site includes both elements of the site, but the reduced yield indicated recognises brownfield land (1.10ha) which represents over half of the site area and is considered to be suitable for small scale development of 15 units. For indicative purposes in the BF Register, the original SHLAA site (3486) is split to reflect brownfield and greenfield elements - total area of 1.92ha. However, as there is an existing use/business in situ, and because there has been no indication in many years that there is an intention to relocated and/or redevelop the site, there is no evidence to suggest this has potential to provide new housing. No longer considered developable/developable and future housing delivery is discounted in the SHLAA.
