Woodhorn Motors, Ellington Road, Ashington

Notes

Commercial garage site that comprises a sales showroom and associated forecourt. Still occupied by the existing business and therefore not immediately available. Demolition and any necessary remediation required before redevelopment through infill. It has previously been indicated that the land may become available for redevelopment, but this will depend on the needs of the business and relocation to new premises. An outline application for development of 15 dwellings was submitted in 2016 but was later withdrawn prior to determination (16/02933/OUT). 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.
