in detail
The site benefits from planning permission for 10x private new build units with a mix of 2,3 and 4 beds.
The site has a significant planning history with over 40 applications, the vast majority of which relate to the residential development for 10 homes. The key permissions that unlock this development are an outline planning permission granted in 2017 (reference S/2286/16/OL) and a subsequent approval of the detailed plans (reserved matters) in 2019 (reference S/4787/18/RM).
Most of the other applications are administrative, dealing with the necessary discharge of planning conditions related to these main approvals. These cover a wide range of technical details, including landscaping, drainage, boundary treatments, and contamination assessments. The most recent application in 2025 was approved to amend the position of two of the plots.
Planning permission was implemented (reference 25/00446/CLUED) when work was carried out to fit 2 garage slabs on the site.
