Notes Former school site that is surplus following closure and has been earmarked for redevelopment. This closure was part of a project for consolidation of education facilities in the town, and relocation of the first school to a new site. Now surplus and available for redevelopment after demolition of the vacant school buildings. Mixed site but any development would be limited to the footprint of the former buildings with the playing fields to be excluded. Brownfield in part (0.72ha) - indicative yield of around 19 dwellings can be calculated based on methodological approach. For indicative purposes in the BF Register, the original SHLAA site (ref 1129) is split to reflect brownfield and greenfield elements - total area of 1.36ha. Confirmed that the site is available and is being considered for a residential scheme. Part of the site is being used for temporary car parking, although this is not permanent and will not hinder future potential. Currently considered developable the medium-term (6 to 10 years). The site is also allocated for development in the Wooler Neighbourhood Plan (2021). Facts about Notes
