Additional Notes

This plot is currently occupied by a single residential dwelling, a former police house. Whilst occupied, it has been identified as having potential for more intensive redevelopment in the past. Demolition of the existing property would be required. May offer small-scale opportunity at the edge of an existing residential area. Previous proposal for clearance and construction of 5 dwellings was approved but lapsed without commencement (N/07/B/0342). This yield was considered to maximise the potential of the site. No recently indication of availability. Following recent reappraisal, now only considered suitable for a development of a lower yield. Now classified as a 'small site' in the SHLAA and the site falls below the threshold required for inclusion on the Brownfield Land Register.

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.
