Additional Notes
Originally the site of a petrol filling station, the site had been utilised as a haulage depot since the 1970s before falling into disuse. Opportunity for redevelopment of the site identified some time ago, and a number of proposals were submitted over the years before works commenced. Demolition of the former depot buildings and associated infrastructure, along with remediation was undertaken prior to redevelopment. Construction of 12 new-build dwellings permitted in 2006 (A/2006/0527). Following a start on site in 2007, a steady build-out programme continued over a number of years. Development of 12 dwellings completed in 2020/21.
