Former Nursery site and Car Park adjoining Newsham First School, Wharton Street, Blyth

Notes

Former school site, declared surplus and available for redevelopment following closure and relocation to new premises. Demolition and clearance of the school and associated buildings was progressed following an initial approval in 2008 (B/08/00110/CPO). This was part of a wider proposal for renewal of education facilities, with the consent also enabling construction of a new 2-storey primary school on land immediately adjacent to the east. After opening of the new school, permission was then granted in 2016 for construction of 14 bungalows on the previous cleared land (16/04102/FUL). Development of 14 dwellings completed in 2018/19.
