| 3920895d67f8104a496ed64f293193b781ad259b1957e87199b47dd0e2380ded | notes | Site to the rear of Front Street in Newbiggin which is occupied by a range of one- and two-storey buildings of various ages, clustered around a central yard for access/service. The buildings are mostly late 19th and early 20th Century in origin, with some more recent additions and extensions. This includes two Newbiggin-by-the-Sea Cooperative Society brick buildings and a more modern building used for vehicle repair. The site was identified for redevelopment a number of years again. alongside the adjacent land (5179). An outline application for a total of 48 dwellings was permitted in 2010 (09/00040/OUT). This proposed clearance of the majority of the buildings and comprehensive redevelopment for residential purposes. The high-density scheme included 41 new-build one- and two-bed apartments, arranged in 3-storey blocks. A further 6 flats were to be created by conversion of an existing building, with a final unit created by change of use of a shop to residential. The works also proposed refurbishment of 5 existing flats (no net gain from this element). However, this permission lapsed due to non-implementation. Despite this, the site is considered to offer an opportunity for redevelopment in the future. For this particular parcel, an indicative yield of around 18 units is felt to be appropriate. This recognises an appropriate density for the urban location, without being at as dense as the previous consent. Demolition and/or conversion would be required prior to redevelopment. Availability is currently uncertain as there has been no recent update from the landowner, or any further proposals for development. As a result, until further evidence is available, the delivery is forecast for the longer-term (11-15 years). | 2023-12-21 |
