Extensive former workhouse and hospital buildings and land to the east of Hexham town centre that have been under-utilised in recent years. Now surplus and offers opportunity for extensive redevelopment. An initial outline permission was granted a number of years ago for redevelopment of the whole hospital site, but lapsed without a start being made (T/980896). Site now split into two adjacent parcel (2345a, 2345b). This eastern parcel is occupied by the former 'fever building' for the workhouse but the vast majority is now utilised for car parking following earlier clearance of a number of single-storey buildings. The demolition was enabled by an earlier consent (T/20080945). Permission recently granted for construction of 43 apartments for 'retirement living' (19/01296/FUL). Development yet to commence but forecast for completion within the next 5 years. Identified as an allocation in the Reg.19 Local Plan (submitted May 2019) and also in the draft Hexham Neighbourhood Plan. Also see separate proposal for 34 flats on adjacent site (2345b)
