Additional Notes

Former fire station site following relocation to Blue Light Hub. In Flood Zone 3 so would only be suitable for housing subject to satisfactory application of the sequential and exception tests. December 2022 update: the site has been sold and a planning application is pending (SL/2022/0722) for the conversion of the fire station to a Funeral Directors. The site is therefore unlikely to be available for housing and will need to removed from the register should permission be granted.

What is Brownfield Land?

Brownfield land is previously developed land that may be available for redevelopment. The government prioritises brownfield development over greenfield sites to protect countryside and make efficient use of existing infrastructure. Local authorities maintain Brownfield Land Registers to identify suitable sites for housing.
