Former Northumbria Police HQ to the northern edge of Ponteland, that was declared surplus following relocation to a new site in central Newcastle. First developed in 1902 to provide cottage homes for children, the original buildings are Grade II listed. The existing it then became a teacher training college in 1962 and saw extensive development following this.. Many of the buildings were constructed in the 1960s and are of low-quality, many being in a poor state of repair. The Police Authority took occupation of the site in 1982 but it is not longer required for operational purposes and available for redevelopment. There a large number of existing buildings on site, providing office and administrative accommodation, and training facilities, the vast majority of which require demolition. The exceptions will be the retention of the existing communications centre, which is to remain in police use, and the listed buildings at the centre of the site. The latter are identified on a separate parcel (3427a). Redevelopment has been proposed for many years. The original proposal for redevelopment was withdrawn (CM/20080775). A revised scheme for mixed-use redevelopment was then approved in outline (14/01442/OUT). Detailed permission for 253 new homes has recently followed (17/02747/REM). The vast majority of the site is brownfield in nature - although there is a very small element of greenfield land the yield represents the capacity of the brownfield land. Comprehensive development of the site is now underway. Delivery programme to continue and overall development anticipated to be completed within the next 3 years (2023/24). NB - see separate record for associated conversion scheme providing an additional 22 units (3427a).
