Notes Vacant former hotel building and associated land, situated within an established residential area of Wooler. Offers opportunity for redevelopment, potentially through conversion, new-build after clearance, or a combination of the two. Site has an extensive planning history over many years. An application for conversion to a residential care home, was refused in 1996 (N/93/B/0335/P). This was followed by another refusal for conversion to 7 dwellings (N/95/B/0687/P). Permission was then granted in 2001 for alteration and conversion of the hotel to create 7 dwellings, but this lapsed without being delivered (N/01/B/0206). Some time afterwards, Before this, an application for demolition of vacant hotel and construction of 12 homes was refused (14/03794/FUL). An appeal was dismissed in 2016. A revised scheme for demolition of an existing dwelling and construction of 2 semi-detached homes and then part demolition, conversion and extension of the hotel to 8 flats was then permitted (17/02068/FUL). Works commenced before a subsequent application to amend the scheme, approved in October 2019 (19/01481/FUL), adding 2 further flats through conversion, increasing overall yield to 11 dwellings. First 4 flats completed in 2020/21, with remaining apartments and 1 of the bungalows under-construction. Recently confirmed that these works are due to be completed in October 2021. Work on the final bungalow is yet to be started and it is understood that it is not intended to progress with building of this final unit at present. The potential for the outstanding dwelling will remain, but currently considered developable (year-6 onwards) as a result of uncertainty. Deliverability will be reassessed if/when new evidence is available. Facts
