Broadway Garage, Darras Hall

A petrol filling station and associated retail unit currently occupies this site. Demolition and clearance of the land will be required prior to a scheme being progressed. Remediation will be required due to the current use. A number of years ago, an outline application for demolition of the garage premises and redevelopment with 20 dwellings was submitted for consideration, but this was refused in 2011 (CM/20100541). This proposal was for a mixed residential scheme made up of 15 flats and 5 houses. Since this initial proposal, there has been no indication that the landowner is looking to bring the site forward for residential redevelopment. Given the operational use and existing business in situ, the site is not considered available or achievable. If this position were to change, then deliverability can be reassessed, but at present any future housing delivery is discounted in the SHLAA.
