Former local authority residential care institution and associated land that is now surplus to requirements. Relatively peripheral setting, lying outside a settlement. The site formed Netherton Park Secure Children’s Home, consisting buildings and associated areas of hardstanding and land. The facilities were housed in one main building and then a number of smaller properties. Following review, in 2012 the site was declared surplus to requirements and available for redevelopment. This was part of wider proposal to relocate to smaller community homes in local areas, rather than operate a centralised facility at this location. The care units and administrative buildings were gradually vacated following this decision. A redevelopment scheme will involve demolition of the empty buildings, some of which are in a poor state of repair. Outline planning permission is in place for redevelopment for up to 85 units (14/00808/OUT). A reserved matters application was approved in February 2021 (20/02069/REM). Site is mixed in nature, with the brownfield element (3.28ha) representing almost half of the site area - a yield of around 36 dwellings can be calculated based on methodological approach. For indicative purposes in the BF Register, the original SHLAA site (ref 3500) is split to reflect brownfield and greenfield elements - total area of 7.89ha. Recently confirmed that the site has been sold in summer 2021, but developer confirms intention to progress with preparation and demolition, and that overall delivery is forecast within the next 5 years.
