Site specific considerations (buffer area required due to

pylons/powerlines and proposed bypass alignment, significant

highway and access improvements, identified capacity

shortfall in sewerage network). Potential abnormal costs from

necessary work to improve local highway/junction capacity

could impact viability. Achievability could be influenced by

progress of Wooler bypass proposal. Significant range of

issues are considered to inhibit achievability

0

If significant highway improvements can be achieved, and the

protected route of the proposed Wooler bypass is dropped or

re-aligned, there may be some development potential. A lack

of sewerage capacity is likely to impact on the timescale for

delivery.. However the rather peripheral location on the edge

of the village, the significant highway constraints and

necessity to limit the developable area towards the west of the

site to take account of overhead power lines, suggest need for

a revised assessment - this combination of factors mean the

site cannot be considered favourably with regard to

1158 Land east of Shepherds House, Kirknewton North Rest of Delivery Area North Kirknewton CP Not in a Settlement NE71 6XQ 1.83 Greenfield No planning status Not Suitable

Flood risk - Recent defences works have reduced the risk from

River Glen but greatest risk associated with College Burn

which has old eroded defences. Highways - Narrow highway

frontage and on approach, limited visibility. Transport

statement required. Highway widening likely required. No

water or sewerage coverage. Potentially offers an attractive

site located in conservation area. However, A range of issues

have been identified and it is considered that the scale of

these matters and the limitations imposed render the site

unsuitable.

Available

Through agent, landowner has confirmed availability of site in

Jan 2017, although this is likely to be a scheme of a reduced

scale to previously indicated. No known constraints.

Not Achievable

Located in broader lower value market area, with low rates of

recent delivery and limited developer interest due to rural

location. Limited data with regard to house prices due to

isolation, but an attractive location within a conservation area.

Site specific considerations (flood risk mitigation, highway and

access improvements, improvements to utilities

capacity/provision needed, landscape mitigation ). Potential

abnormal costs in implementing measures to mitigate

significant flood risk, with existing defences needing renewal,

and also in providing access improvements and connecting

site to utilities networks could impact viability. However a

residential scheme is still considered achievable as long as

issues can be overcome

(widening/pedestrian links). Devils causeway Roman road runs

through centre of site - archaeological assessment/evaluation

trenching required. Buffer to water course to north of site

required. Potential flood risk. A range of issues have been

identified and it is considered that the scale of these matters

and the limitations imposed render the site unsuitable.

Available No known constraints. Not Achievable

Located in low value market area, with low rates of recent

delivery and limited developer interest due to rural location.

Average prices in village broadly in line with those for wider

area, being an attractive, but isolated, location. Site specific

considerations (significant highway and access improvements,

archaeology, flood risk mitigation, buffer zone required due to

adjacent watercourse). Potential abnormal costs in delivering

off-site improvements to enable satisfactory access and

through assessment/mitigation of impacts upon 'Roman Road'

could impact viability. It is considered that the range of issues

identified and the market conditions apparent in a relatively

isolated location, currently mean that development at this

scale is not achievable.

0

The extent of archaeological work required prior to

development will determine when/whether housing can be

achieved. Off site highway improvement costs may also affect

viability. Site is peripheral, being on the edge of settlement,

and the nature of adjacent development would suggest that

any proposal for development would be unlikely to be suitable

requirements. However identified as part of leisure centre

redevelopment and not available for residential development.

Not Achievable

High value market area, with high rates of recent delivery and

strong developer interest. Average prices in immediate area

broadly in line with those for settlement, being an attractive

town centre location. Site specific considerations (demolition

and/or conversion, site clearance, flood risk mitigation,

diversion/easement of water main, wastewater capacity issue,

environmental mitigation). Potential abnormal costs in

implementing mitigation measures to deal with flood risk

(zones 2/3) and in demolition/conversion of existing buildings

could impact viability. Perception of flood risk may impact

upon marketability. At the current time unlikely to be

achievable.

0

If the flood risk permits housing, high demand for town centre

residential units may enable the delivery of the site despite

significant development costs. However, proposed as site for

new leisure centre and therefore unlikely to be available for

residential development - lack of certainty means a scheme

would not be achievable

cover. Site effectively separates villages and is not adjacent to

the main part of settlement. Transport assessment required -

highway access to east. Possible contamination from former

use. Sewer and water main cross site.

3178 Hadston Precinct Car Park South East Rest of Delivery Area South East East Chevington CP Hadston NE65 9YF 0.46 PDL No planning status Not Suitable

Car park site within the centre of Hadston. Need to retain car

parking spaces in this location is key to deeming if site

suitable. Sewer and water main cross site. No other significant

constraints. Site considered to be unsuitable at the current time

Not Available

Currently functioning as a car park, it is unclear of the site will

be made available for housing development. At the current

time, it is likely that retention of the car park is required to

service retail units, therefore the land is not available for

housing

Achievable

Located in low value market area, with low rates of recent

delivery and limited developer interest. Average prices in

immediate area broadly in line with those for settlement. Site

specific considerations (net developable area reduced due to

need to retain parking, diversion/easement of sewer/water

main). Development costs unlikely to be prohibitive. Need to

retain car parking could impact achievability.

0

Infill development that could be provided at the identified

character of the area.

Available No known constraints. Not Achievable

High value market area, with high rates of recent delivery and

strong developer interest. Average prices in immediate area

towards slightly higher range for settlement. Site specific

considerations (highway and access improvements,

topography related issues). Potential abnormal costs in

making improvements to enable access and also through

design/engineering measures, if areas of sloping topography

are developed, could impact viability. Close proximity of

sewage works could affect viability and this constraint, in

conjunction with other issues identified, is considered to have

a negative impact upon acihevability.

to site will need improving with parking/turning provision.

Suitability of site dependant use of surrounding site 3051. A

range of issues have been identified and it is considered that

the scale of these matters and the limitations imposed render

the site unsuitable.

Not Available

Currently occupied by an operating scrapyard. No known

ownership constraints although there is no indication that

present occupants are to relocate. Not available for housing

development at the current time

Not Achievable

Located in low value market area, with low rates of recent

delivery and limited developer interest. Average prices in

village broadly in line with those for wider area, but an

industrial location. Site specific considerations (demolition, site

clearance and remediation, highway and access

improvements, buffer zone required due to adjacent

employment/industrial uses). Potential abnormal costs from

clearance and remediation of contamination could impact

viability. Relocation of existing business could affect

achievability - however allocated employment land with no

proposal for de-allocation/change. Reliance on adjacent site to

enhance delivery prospects questions standalone

achievability. Constraints/costs currently considered prohibitive

to achievability.

0

Future delivery of housing is dependant upon site 3051 which

surrounds the site, affecting its suitability and marketability.

With additional concerns regarding contamination, site unlikely

to be delivered for housing. The range of factors identified with

regard to access, contamination and surrounding land uses

mean that the site is not suitable for residential development

and is currently unavailable, being occupied by an existing

business. Site assessed as not achievable until the S106 is

agreed due to viability issues which still remain. Further

negotiation is required before a S106 agreement can be

signed.

Greenfield site to NE of Ponteland located in the Green Belt.

Site is unsuitable for development as Green Belt designation

is to be retained within emerging policy. Eland Lane to west

cannot support development but access may be achievable

from the corner off Paddock Hill/Church Chare. Proposed

Ponteland bypass route crosses site. Identified on an

Environment Agency map as being located in an area at

significant risk of flooding though there are flood defences in

place up to a 1 in 100 year event standard. Located in

prehistoric landscape, with potential medieval demesne farm

or settlement in the area. Archaeological assessment likely to

be required. A Water Main crosses the site and NWL would

require it to be diverted or placed within a suitable easement.

Water supply capacity issue, offsite reinforcement required.

Available No known constraints. Achievable

Highest value market area, with high rates of recent delivery

and strong developer interest. Average prices in immediate

area towards slightly higher range for settlement, being an

attractive location. Site specific considerations (highway and

access improvements, buffer zone required due to proposed

bypass alignment, flood risk mitigation, conservation/historic

landscape mitigation, archaeology, water capacity issue,

diversion/easement of water main). Potential abnormal costs

through implementing additional mitigation measures to deal

with flood risk and impacts on historic environment and also

from possible land acquisition to enable access, could impact

viability. Achievability could be further influenced by progress

of Ponteland bypass proposal.

Agricultural field bounded by old railway to east, in a

residential area. Pond in extreme south of site. Good potential

access from west, local highway improvements required

(dedicated right turn). Sewer crosses site, water network

reinforcement may be required. Buffer to pond required - great

crested newt also found in pond to east of site. The entire site

is in flood zone 3 and is at a high risk of flooding. Further work

is required to understand the extent of Flood Zone 3b

(functional floodplain). There is a main river flowing through

the site. We would need a 5 metre easement either side of the

watercourse to allow maintenance of the main river. This site

would be difficult to develop as the construction of built

development would remove floodplain storage and there is no

space on site for compensatory floodplain storage. Any

discharge of surface water to the watercourse would need to

be attenuated so as to prevent any increase in flood risk

downstream. The Environment Agency recently undertook

work to reduce the flooding downstream of the pond and

therefore, we would not agree to any development which

negated that work. Ideally, this land would be used to create a

wetland or pond and increase the storage capacity of the

informal pond already on the site, thereby, reducing flood risk

in the area.

8036 Land at Willowburn Trading Estate Alnwick North Alnwick Alnwick CP Alnwick 5.32 PDL Allocated site in a plan Not Suitable

PDL site within settlement of Alnwick currently covers a range

of employment plots (currently non operational) on a

designated employment site allocation. The employment site

is not proposed for de-allocation in emerging policy. Some

employment uses e.g. garage/workshops would be

incompatible with housing. Improvements would be required to

existing highways network to accommodate access to the site.

A Transport Asssessment and Travel Plan would be required

to address the impacts on the highways network and nearby

junction capacities. Water main and public sewer cross the

site which would require redirection or the implementation of

suitable easements. Site located close to a Sewage Pumping

Station (SPS) that requires habitable development to be

located no closer than 15 metres from SPS. A range of issues

have been identified and it is considered that the scale of

these matters and the limitations imposed render the site

unsuitable.

Available

Employment site is not proposed for de-allocation in emerging

policy. However current application, pending consideration,

suggests availability, although range of uses could mean this

would be in the longer term

Not Achievable

Medium value market area, with modest rates of recent

delivery and moderate developer interest. Average prices in

8041 Land West of The Wynding, Beadnell North Belford & Seahouses Beadnell CP Beadnell NE675AG 4.43 Greenfield No planning status Not Suitable

Greenfield site on edge of existing settlement. Currently in use

as grazing land, adajcent to existing residential development

to east/south and open countryside elsewhere. Situated within

AONB and Heritage Coast. Northumbria Coast SPA, Ramsar

site and SAC all within close proximity and HRA will be

required. Impact on other environmental sites in close

proximity - SSSI, NWT and LWS - may also need

consideration. Protected species recorded iinwithin the general

vicinity of the site. Highways constraints could be limiting with

access not available from the B1340. Alternative access

points are narrow, requiring road widening or limiting potential

yield. Grade II listed building adjacent to site. Both a water

main and public sewer cross the site, potentially requiring

diversion/easement. A range of issues have been identified

and it is considered that the scale of these matters and the

limitations imposed render the site unsuitable.

a suitable location for development

8043 Land West of Fair Moor, Morpeth Central Morpeth Morpeth CP Morpeth 14.18 Greenfield No planning status Not Suitable

Large greenfield site, currently in active use for agricultural

purposes. Site is deemed unsuitable for housing as it lies

within the emerging Green Belt extension boundary. Site is

isolated from the main built-up area of Morpeth, being to the

west of the A1, and development would represent a significant

change to local character and setting. Visual impact of

development could be substantial given sloping site

topography and prominent position. As a result the site would

not be suitable for housing. Impact on highways network likely

to be significant, particularly given proximity of A1. Major

improvements potentially required to the existing highway

network to deliver scale of development proposed - including

to junctions/access points, road widening and linking to

Morpeth Northern Bypass. A public sewer crosses the site,

requiring diversion, with a sewage pumping station also in

close proximity which will require a buffer zone. A range of

environmental/biodiversity issues may need mitigation - further

assessment required.

Available No known constraints. 0

Site is deemed unsuitable for housing as it lies within the

emerging Green Belt extension boundary. The prominent

location and sloping topography of the site would result in a

significant visual impact on the landscape. Combined with the

sites peripheral location, outside of Morpeth and its potential

significant impacts on the Highways network, this site is

considered unsuitable for housing development at the present

time.

8044 Beauclerc Field, Riding Mill Central Rest of Delivery Area Central Broomhaugh and Riding CP Riding Mill NE446HY 4.40 Greenfield No planning status Not Suitable

Greenfield site in peripheral location which is isolated from the

main settlement. Site is unsuitable for development as Green

Belt designation is to be retained within emerging policy.

Development could have a significant negative impact on the

setting and character of Riding Mill and Riding Lea and

potentially lead to merging of the settlements. Current highway

and access constraints prevent development, with existing

single track lane being unsuitable for the level of development

proposed. Currently mixed agricultural land, scrub and low

density woodland. Western extremity of site adjacent to limited

residential development but mainly surrounded by agricultural

land. Sloping site topography in evidence. Existing public

sewer crosses the site, requiring diversion/easement.

Available No known constraints. 0

Development on this site could have a significant impact on

the setting and character of Riding Mill and Riding Lea and

lead to the coalesence of the settlements. Highways and

access constraints also result in the site being assessed as

unsuitable for housing due to insufficent access to support the

proposed scale of development. Site is unsuitable for

development as Green Belt designation is to be retained

within emerging policy.

8046 Land to the rear of 18-20 Main Street, Felton North Rest of Delivery Area North Felton CP Felton NE659PN 0.24 Greenfield No planning status Not Suitable

Greenfield site within existing settlement. Grazing land,

although overgrown, and bordered by trees and vegetation.

Severe constraints relating to highways with improvements

necessary to ensure suitability - current access point is not

considered suitable. With no alternative direct access point

available the solution is likely to require land acquisition and/or

legal agreement. Site is a medieval burgage plot within the

conservation area which adds to character with any

development having a particularly harmful impact. Therefore

due to highways, conservation and character issues, the site is

unsuitable for residential development.

Available

highways access. Previous submission would support

availability of site itself

Not Achievable

Located in high value market area, with low rates of recent

delivery, but likely to be reasonable developer interest.

Potential site specific considerations (ecological and

environemental designations, highway and access

improvements). The significant constraint with regard to

provision of access is consdiered to render development of the

site unachievable at the current time.

Greenfield site located within designated Green Belt to the

north of Wylam. Site is unsuitable for development as Green

Belt designation is to be retained within emerging policy.

Ancient woodland designation west prevents proposed access

via adjacent site 2508. Access cannot currently be achieved

from single track road which bisects site and would need to be

upgraded to full single carriageway to accommodate the

additional level of development. However, as there is limited

potential for road widening at certain points along track road, it

is unlikely that adoptable access can be achieved. Therefore

the site is deemed unsuitable for housing at this time. Buffers

to woodland would need to be factored into any proposed

scheme. A Water Main crosses the site.

Available No known constraints. 0

The site is located within the Green Belt.Site is unsuitable for

development as Green Belt designation is to be retained

8053 Land South of High Stobhill Farm, Morpeth Central Morpeth Morpeth CP Morpeth 10.14 Greenfield No planning status Not Suitable

Greenfield site adjacent to the southern settlement boundary

of Morpeth. Established tree line to the northern boundary of

the site seperates and isolates the site from existing

residential development. Access from the north into the site is

not feasible. Alternative route via SHLAA development site

6743 requires crossing of river and cumulative level of

development may be too high for single point of access.At this

point in time, access prevents development. Traffic generated

may result in capacity issues on the network, the impact of

which is unknown without a full Transport Assessment and

Travel Plan – areas of concern include route towards Morpeth

Town Centre. Potential cumulative impacts of this site,

approved developments and other SHLAA sites in the vicinity

on the network and may prevent the network from taking

further development without significant mitigation. 5m buffer

required between development and catch burn and coal burn

to south in order to protect and conserve wildife species. Site

is deemed unsuitable for housing as it lies within the emerging

Green Belt extension boundary.

Available No known constraints. 0

Site located on periphery of the settlement. Suitable direct

access to the site can not be achieved. An alternative route

via SHLAA site 6743 was assessed and considered to be

for housing as it lies within the emerging Green Belt extension

boundary.

8055 Land to south west of Prudhoe Central Prudhoe Prudhoe CP Prudhoe 11.57 Greenfield No planning status Not Suitable

Greenfield site lies within designated Green Belt. Site is

unsuitable for development as Green Belt designation is to be

retained within emerging policy. Existing residential

development to the east of the site. Water main and public

sewer cross the site and would require diversion or suitable

easement. High pressure gas pipeline crosses the site on the

periphery of the south western boundary. Mitigation would be

required in the form of its consideration in site layouts to

include stand off zones, should tdevelopment come forward on

the site. Transport Assessment & Travel Plan (with agreed

bonds) required to assess the impact of development on the

network. Particular areas of concern for the existing network

include the Town Centre and the routes to the Town Centre.

Potential impact on the existing traffic calming from additional

trips on the surrounding highway network to be considered.

Access may be possible through adjacent SHLAA sites with

development over 250 units requiring two forms of suitable

access. Site within a boundary of previously worked opencast

site with evidence of coal mining subsidence damage in the

surrounding area in recent years. Mine gas emissions have

not been recorded at the site. Further assessment of risk,

mitigation and ground stability measures required via a Coal

Mining Risk Assessment. Public Right of Way passes along

the Eastern boundary of site to Otter Burn Way.

Available No known constraints. Achievable
