224fe49234f30d6128e0db55f4e32cb939e2e8bd26a7e10136a02aa0a7052a48 notes Land at the former Stobswood Colliery and the associated brickworks. The site has been cleared in recent times following cessation of the industrial uses, with all the previous buildings and associated industrial infrastructure having gradually been cleared as the site declined. This culminated with clearance of the brickworks in 2005 following final closure. Now fully vacant, it comprises of the footprint of former buildings and hardstanding, much of which is overgrown. Demolition waste still occupies the site following the clearance and significant remediation is still required prior to redevelopment. Somewhat peripheral location, being located to the opposite side of the ECML to the rest of Stobswood and Widdrington Station. However, it does offer a chance for a comprehensive redevelopment of derelict industrial land. A residential scheme has been proposed for a number of years and there is a complex planning history to the site. The original proposal for 36 units was refused in 2006 (CM/05/D/773). In 2007, a revised outline permission for 26 homes was permitted (CM/20061042). However, this was not progressed and the permission lapsed due to non-implementation. Following this, a hybrid consent was submitted in 2008 for 149 homes, and this application was eventually approved in 2015 after being under consideration for a number of years (CM/20090001). It included full planning permission for a small-scale scheme of 19 dwellings, a phase-1 to development, with the bulk of the dwellings being in outline. Shortly after this approval, some initial site works were commenced and this implemented this permission, ensuring that it will not lapse. A lengthy hiatus followed before an application to vary the approved hybrid was permitted in 2020 (17/04653/VARYCO). This reduced the overall yield of the development to 104 homes. However, more recently, a Section 73 application set out that the applicant proposes to expand the phase-1 area to encompass 50 dwellings rather than the 19 previously indicated. So it is yet to be confirmed how many dwellings will be constructed and what elements of the permission will be delivered due to the complex nature of the planning history.. The permitted scheme includes a combined heat and power plant, enterprise space, allotments and associated open space. It is noted that a number of obstacles and constraints are evident, factors that have led to viability/deliverable to be questioned in the past. However, the hybrid permission remains extant, with it recently confirmed (2022) that the landowner is continuing to make progress towards delivering a residential scheme. Recent progress has been made in order to satisfy planning conditions. Delivery of homes is anticipated to begin within the next five years, with overall completion forecast in 2029/30 (year-6). 2023-12-07

Whilst no recent progress has been made, it is intended to progress with satisfying planning conditions shortly.

8cc849f6ffc356738131844a046c2a0dd343d0a00c00ea418688165ed5f8d25d notes Outline consent approved for mixed-use scheme including construction of 149 houses - CM/20090001. Previous outline consent for 26 homes not progressed - CM/20061042. Original proposal for 36 units refused - 05/D/773. Extant permission for 149 units. Former brickworks site on edge of settlement. Planning permission in place however delivery of this scheme is currently considered uncertain. A number of obstacles and constraints are evident that question deliverability and it anticipated it is likely to only come forward for development in the medium-term. Until housebuilding commences, the site will remain on the BF Register. Extensive site to north of the railway line. https://www.northumberland.gov.uk/NorthumberlandCountyCouncil/media/Planning-and-Building/planning%20policy/Studies%20and%20Evidence%20Reports/Housing%20Studies/1.%20SHLAA/Appendix-G-SHLAA-Sites-Summary-Assessment-Schedule.pdf 2017-12-17
f770284a0d513d0a4a3f6f1e61fd425a4e8252f1ede8c86396c78f70bd4bdc5a notes Former colliery and brickworks site that offers scope for significant redevelopment but is somewhat peripheral, being located to the other side of the ECML to the rest of the settlement. The site has been subject to a number of applications, including a permitted hybrid scheme that includes full planning permission for a small-scale scheme of 19 dwellings (CM/20090001). This is yet to commence but is forecast to be delivered in the next 5 years. The wider site is an extensive area of land to north of the railway line that may have further potential in the future. The original permission was for 149 units in outline alongside a range of other uses. A variation of conditions application relating to this remains outstanding (17/04653/VARYCO). If this is approved the number of units will increase from 19 to 104. A number of obstacles and constraints are evident that question the wider deliverability and this may be reflected in the smaller proposal recently granted approval. Until housebuilding commences, the site will remain on the BF Register. Wider site is an extensive area of land to north of the railway line that may have further potential in the future. Previous outline consent for 26 homes was not progressed (CM/20061042) and an original proposal for 36 units was refused (05/D/773). The outline permission (CM/20090001) includes consent for combined heat and power plant, enterprise space, allotments and associated open space. 2019-12-17
