Notes	First phase of the strategic redevelopment of the St. George's Hospital site. This is a former psychiatric hospital site to the norther edge of Morpeth, comprising of a range of buildings and extensive areas of green land. The hospital was closed in 1995 and large parts of the wider site are now surplus to NHS requirements and available for redevelopment. This follows the completion of the new St. George's Hospital facility. Occupied by the main two-storey former hospital building and wings provided through extension of the facility over the years. There are also a number of additional buildings in situ, including a former Chapel, terraced and single two-storey residential properties, larger administration buildings, and a range of outbuildings. All of these are vacant, are identified for clearance, and require demolition. Identified for a strategic mixed-use redevelopment. A hybrid application for 375 dwellings, alongside supporting facilities, was initial approved in 2015 (14/02750/FUL). This included full permission for demolition of the existing hospital buildings and construction of 119 dwellings. The outline element includes further demolition and the phased redevelopment of site for up to 256 homes along with community, leisure uses and public open space. Further applications for the development of the remainder of the site have since been submitted. The first (phase-1b) is a hybrid application for the construction of 159 dwellings, permitted in 2021 (19/00904/FUL). Then an outline application for an extra-care/community well-being facility with up to 80 accommodation units was permitted in later 2021 (19/00903/OUT). Another application for 94 homes and an 84-bed extra care facility has recently been approved in early 2024 (23/02787/FUL). The impact of these detailed permissions means that the overall yield for the site now stands at 457 dwellings. The development is being delivered as a joint venture. For indicative purposes in the BF Register, the original SHLAA site (ref 3397) is split to reflect brownfield and greenfield elements - total area of 19.8ha. Initial phase-1a is almost completed, with later phases to follow. Construction to continue with final completions anticipated beyond the initial five years, reflecting a long-term build-out programme. NB - see separate record for phase-2 of the St. George's redevelopment project (3074).	Facts
