Notes Area of vacant land that comprises part of a very large area of cleared industrial land. The land was previously occupied by the pit and associated railway land, terraced houses and allotment gardens. Offers opportunity to be part of an extensive redevelopment of the former Cambois Colliery site. Significant constraints to development are recognised, notably locational factors and need for significant remediation. An initial outline application for comprehensive mixed-use redevelopment of a wider site was submitted in 2008 (08/00403/OUTES). The proposal encompassed a number of adjacent sites (5047, 5048, 5098, 5103) and was for remediation of former industrial land followed by construction of 467 homes along with supporting uses and infrastructure. This included retail and health facilities, care home, combined heat and power facility, roads, car parking and landscaping. The live proposal was amended 2011, a change which proposed remediation followed by construction of 323 houses and the supporting commercial, leisure and community facilities. This application remained 'minded to approve', subject to agreement of the S106 and a number of other issues, for several years, before finally being disposed of in 2024. Despite this, the landowner still intends to deliver a significant regeneration project for Cambois, and it understood that a revised application is now being assembled with a view to submitting in the short-term. Noting the site contains, development is forecast for the medium- to longer-term (6-10 years onwards), with a long-term delivery programme anticipated given the scale of the redevelopment. Facts
