Point POINT (-2.375643 55.317871) Facts about Point
Notes Former school site in a highly rural location that was declared surplus follow closure in 2004. Offers opportunity for small-scale residential development. The redevelopment of the vacant school buildings was completed in 2016 following permission for alteration, conversion and extension to create a single dwelling (14/00717/FUL). The remainder of the site comprises of hardstanding, former car parking and playground areas adjacent to the former school building. A number of proposals have been submitted in the past relating to the wider site. An initial outline application for 12 dwellings was refused in 2005 (T/20050579). A revised scheme, also for construction of 12 dwellings in the grounds of the former school, was then permitted in 2007 but lapsed due to no progress being made (T/200664079). There is still opportunity for a residential development, noting the context of the rural context. The lower yield identified reflects this. Recently confirmed that the current landowner will consider options for redevelopment in due course. Currently considered developable later in the plan period (11 to 15 years). NB - the completed conversion project is identified on a separate 'small site' record in the SHLAA (2365a). Facts about Notes
