Land at Former Coalite Works, Buttermilk Lane, Bolsover

Outline planning permission (14/00145/OL) granted for a 660 dwelling scheme for the re-development of the whole area with associated ancillary uses (local centre, a safeguarded area for a school, children's play areas, green spaces and a Local Habitat Area; time limit for development is 8 years). This brownfield land comprises only the north western part of the scheme in North East Derbyshire. Since planning permission was granted on site, the Government has confirmed proposals for the realignment of the proposed route for HS2, such that it runs through the eastern end of the Coalite site affecting residential development. The impact of this creates significant uncertainty for the approved scheme and the Council cannot be confident that the housing development will come forward; the 5YHLS deems therefore the site to be undevelopable. In light of the proposed realignment of HS2 the developer has applied for an outline application for B1c, B2 and B8 uses (19/00925/OL) which has been conditionally approved on 18 May 2020. An RM applicaiton for housing has not yet been submitted to the Counicl.|https://www.ne-derbyshire.gov.uk/documents/eb-hou6b-housing-sites-appendix-c/download
