Point POINT (-2.465911 54.967485) Facts about Point
Notes The former goods yard at Haltwhistle station, mostly comprising vacant hardstanding, some of which is overgrown. The land has been out of use for a number of years, with it most recently utilised for open-air storage. The land currently remains in Network Rail ownership, but it has been earmarked for redevelopment for a number of years. The Tyne Valley railway line is immediately to the north and River South Tyne adjacent to south. Setting offers a potentially attractive location for residential development, although some constraints of access are identified. Remediation also likely due to previous use. Outline permission for residential development of up to 50 homes was secured in 2008 but lapsed (T/20041143). An application was submitted in 2011 to extend this, but was eventually disposed without determination (11/00905/FUL). A former Tynedale Local Plan allocation for 30 dwellings also covered the site. Whilst the previous consent was for up to 50 dwellings, a reduced indicative yield of 30 units is identified in the SHLAA, appropriate given the setting and site constraints. Recently confirmed that the land is still available for redevelopment, and that a proposal for a revised residential scheme is to be considered again. Currently considered developable later in the medium- to longer-term (6 to 10 years). Facts about Notes
