Additional Notes

Land in Haltwhistle currently occupied by a range of small buildings, sheds and hardstanding. Demolition of these buildings and redevelopment as an infill site has been proposed for a number of years. An initial outline permission was secured for clearance and construction of 6 homes in 2007following clearance, but lapsed despite extension of the initial consent (T/20070154, T/20100032). More recently, a revised application for demolition and construction of 7 dwellings was permitted in 2020 (19/0229//FUL). It is understood that a developer had been secured to deliver the scheme. Despite this, once again the permission lapsed due to non-implementation. It is understood that the landowner is still looking to progress development and a revised proposal will be submitted in due course. Delivery is currently forecast for the medium-term (6 to 10 years). The site is also allocated for residential development in the Northumberland Local Plan (2022).

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.
