Sea View Works, Main Steet, Spittal

Printworks complex comprising of industrial buildings and associated land. Currently occupied by an operational business and relocation would be required in order for the site to become available. However, the land has been identified as having potential for redevelopment in the past, and there is a lengthy planning history evident. To be suitable, a scheme should be limited to the existing footprint of built development, but a slightly higher yield may be apt for the urban location. Demolition of the buildings and outbuildings would be required prior to progression. Outline permission for clearance and construction of 14 dwellings originally granted in 1992 but, despite being renewed on two further occasions, this lapsed without any progress being made progress (N/92/B/0651/P, N/96/B/0206/P, N/99/B/0268). Confirmed that the landowner is still keen to redevelop the site, although it is not yet being marketed. Currently considered developable in the medium-term (6 to 10 years).
