Part of an existing industrial site towards the edge of Bedlington. Home to a successful electrical contractor business, so would not be immediately available for redevelopment. In the past it has been indicated that the site could potentially be available for redevelopment, probably in tandem with the adjacent land within the same ownership that provides car parking (5094). The indicative yield highlighted for a residential scheme recognises the potential for development at slightly higher density in keeping with the location. However, there has been no recent indication of a plan to relocate and the most recent proposals are for continued use of the site for current use through construction of new industrial buildings (18/04464/FUL). In addition, there has been no contact with the landowner for a number of years and this, along with the fact that there has been no recent indication of relocation and/or change in circumstances, means that the site is not available for redevelopment. No longer considered developable/developable and future housing delivery is discounted in the SHLAA.
