Ideal Caravans, Clifton (brownfield parcel)

Notes

Originally colliery land, the site was then utilised for light industrial uses, but it has been utilised for storage and sales of caravans since the 1970s. There are a small number of buildings which require clearance, but the majority of the site is hardstanding providing open-air storage. However, following a reappraisal of business requirements, it has been identified for redevelopment. Planning permission was granted for 35 homes in 2018 (14/02140/FUL). The site is a mix of brownfield and greenfield land. The brownfield land (0.45ha) represents a small proportion of the total site area - a yield of around 7 dwellings can be calculated based on the methodological approach. For indicative purposes in the BF Register, the original SHLAA site (ref 6841) is split to reflect brownfield and greenfield elements - total area of 2.77ha. Since grant of permission, the site has been sold and cleared. Site preparation has now been undertaken and the permission has been implemented. Delivery of all 35 units is forecast within the coming five years.
