Site that has been occupied by domestic garages, sheds and small-scale outbuildings, a few of which remain in situ. The southern part of the site is now largely vacant and overgrown following earlier clearance. The northern part of the site comprises of hardstanding that has been utilised for vehicle storage for the adjacent industrial land. This adjacent land was previously part of the Linton Colliery site until closure. Any remaining structures require clearance prior to redevelopment. The site has been identified for redevelopment for a number of years, with outline permission for residential development first granted in 2003 (03/D/0614). A detailed scheme was then consented for 5 detached dwellings in 2007, but this permission lapsed, despite renewal (CM/20061032, 10/S/00036/VARYCO,). Despite the earlier proposal not being progressed, it is still considered that potential for redevelopment exists. The identified yield reflects adjacent residential development and the surrounding environment. Recently confirmed that the site remains available for redevelopment for residential purposes with development currently forecast for the medium- to longer-term (11 to 15 years).
