Additional Notes

Land to the west of Hexham town centre that consists of a warehouse, other associated buildings and hardstanding. Currently leased to a business who operate a builders yard from the site and relocation would be required prior to redevelopment. Demolition of the buildings and clearance of the site also required. Redevelopment could potentially be progressed a part of a group of adjacent sites, all proposed for allocation through the plan process (2040, 2628, 9136). Confirmed that the site is being considered for redevelopment, but it is understood that this is dependent on identification of a new site for the tenant and construction of a new building for use by them. As a result, the site is currently considered developable later in the plan period (11 to 15 years). Allocated for housing in the Northumberland Local Plan (2022) and also in the Hexham Neighbourhood Plan (2021) (Site H 1-5).

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.
