Land adjacent to Corbridge railway station that is partly occupied by existing employment uses, with the remainder being vacant. A commercial laundry and scrap yard have been operating from the site in recent times, and there are a range of unoccupied industrial workshops also in situ. Identified as having potential for redevelopment together with adjacent industrial land at Corbridge station (9041, 9073). An application for clearance of industrial buildings and construction of 12 townhouses and 6 apartments, as part of a mixed-use scheme, was permitted in 2017 (14/04259/FUL). Alongside the residential development, the proposal will also provide business and commercial floorspace to support local employment. Works commenced in March 2020 with demolition of an office building and completion is forecast within the next five years. NB - a proposal to provide a further 4 dwellings on immediately adjacent land has also been permitted (17/03897/FUL).
