Point POINT (-1.5588 55.218748) Facts about Point
Notes Extensive area of land at Ellington Colliery, vacant following final closure in 2006.The pit complex was cleared following closure and all the buildings, outbuildings and associated infrastructure have since been demolished. Since then, the site has comprised of hardstanding, with an element of demolition waste remaining, but the vast majority of the land has been overgrown and neglected. Significant remediation works are necessary as part of a redevelopment scheme. An initial hybrid application for mixed-use development was secured in 2015 (14/03016/FUL). In addition to the residential development, it includes retail, employment and commercial floorspace. A total of 400 dwellings are due to be built-out in a long-term delivery plan, with four phases expected in due course. Detailed permissions for the first two phases now in place. Initial phase-1 for 99 homes, approved in 2016 (16/02972/REM), but subsequently reduced to 91 units, followed by a phase-2 of 95 units in 2018 (18/03001/REM). The result of these detailed permissions is that the overall yield for the site has now dropped to 339 dwellings. Site works commenced in 2017 and the first new homes were delivered later in the same year. After a consistent build-out programme, works are now progressing towards the final phases. Overall completion is forecast within the next five years. Facts about Notes
