Notes Land part of wider quarry site, comprising of a mix of buildings, hardstanding, vacant areas and greenfield land. Location is somewhat peripheral. The north east part of the site and land immediately north of the site boundary is occupied by Cast Stone North (previously NASCO), who have traded from the site for over 40 years. Land identified for redevelopment as part of a wider proposal to provide new production facilities for the company. A large shed was in situ on part of the site, however the majority of the production buildings were destroyed by fire in May 2010 and the business now utilises existing smaller buildings that limit manufacturing capabilities. This proposal would allow relocation to a new purpose built plant in a more appropriate industrial area. The remainder of the site is rough grassland used for grazing horses. An initial outline permission for a static caravan/chalet park, together with supporting facilities, was never progressed (10/S/00573/OUT). A revised consent was later secured for development of 63 dwellings was granted in 2016 (16/00592/OUT). As well as residential development this permission included provision for 16 luxury units for short-term holiday accommodation (C2). A reserved matters application for the details of the scheme was permitted in March 2021 (19/04808/REM). Again, this is for 63 homes (C3) and 16 holiday units (C2).The brownfield land (0.47ha) represents a proportion of the overall site area - a yield of around 8 dwellings can be calculated based on methodological approach. For indicative purposes in the BF Register, the original SHLAA site (ref 6779) is split to reflect brownfield and greenfield elements - total area of 3.78ha. Whilst detailed permission has recently been secured, it is understood that a number of issues require resolution before development can commence. This includes those relating to viability, funding, and market factors The landowner is still keen to take forward a development but, as a result of uncertainty, currently considered developable (year-6 onwards). Deliverability will be reassessed if/when new evidence is available. Facts
