Additional Notes
Previously assessed through SHLAA as site 1165. http://www.nnjpu.org.uk/publications/docdetail.asp?docid=1323 For BFR assessment purposes it is assumed that development will only happen on the PDL element of site (and not the larger, wider site which includes extensive tracts of Greenfield). To derive these estimates it has been calculated that only 30% of the wider site is PDL so 70% of the overall site has been discounted for development, hence the minimum figure propsed of 46 net dwellings used. KET/2016/0044 - Residential development of up to 304 dwellings with associated access, infrastructure, public open space, nature areas and surface water management measure. This application was refused but an appeal on the site was successful and therefore obtained outline planning permission in December 2017 (APP/L2820/W/16/3162430). A reserved matters application for 255 dwellings (NK/2021/0372) was received in April 2021 and is yet to be determined. Details can be found here: https://www.kettering.gov.uk/planningApplication/130787 This site is included in the Council's Site Specific Part 2 Local Plan (Publication Plan) under Policy DES5 (Land to the south of Desborough). This document was adopted on 1st December 2021, a capacity of 304 dwellings is assumed here through this. The site is due to commence in 2025/26.
