Options/Proposals

1. Maintain and

increase

Doncaster’s

growth and

prosperity and

diversify its

economic base

A) Local

economy

(maintain

and

strengthen

)

• Create jobs and new

businesses

• Support existing businesses

• Provide employment

opportunities for everyone

• Increase wealth

• Attract investment and trade

• Close the ‘output gap’

• Improve financial security

• Provide a supply of available

land for all business needs

• Promote tourism

• Support home working/ e-

commerce

• Improve quality of life

i. Loss of existing

employment use:

++ Not used

+ Not used

0 Housing proposal on

employment use

- Housing proposal on

employment use

- - Not used

It is not considered that

this criteria is influenced

by the location of

development sites per se,

so the effects on all site

options will be similar in

SA terms – scope out from

appraisal

Housing site options – HELAA

identifies whether sites are

GF/BF. Assume all GF sites are

not in existing employment so

filter these out. BF sites will then

be assessed against known uses

via classifications in the ‘Basic

Land & Property Units’ (BLPU)

data or UDP designations. BLPU

is the classification given to each

address point. Cleared/vacant

employment sites considered as

being not in employment use.

Test assumes site areas with over

50% of land in employment use

as scoring negatively (-).

Yes Maintain & strengthen economic growth: There is often pressure for housing proposals on land in current

active employment use. Although such sites may provide short-term employment opportunities, through the

construction industry for example, the loss of the existing employment use to other land uses will be permanent.

All potential employment sites will, by their nature, contribute significant positive effects against this SA objective.

B) Diversify

the

economic

base

• Provide a skilled workforce.

• Broaden sectoral mix

• Less reliance on current high

volume sectors

• More workers in ‘higher value’

sectors

• Promote rural diversification

It is not considered that

pride

A) Support

community

identity

• Maintain and protect the

physical identity and setting

of existing settlements

• Conserve and protect existing

services and facilities

(especially in more remote

areas)

• Deliver affordable homes

• Promote greater community

cohesion

Housing & employment site

options – The Council has train

stations mapped as points in GIS

and has been given access to

SYPTE’s high frequency bus

network (actual bus stops shown

in GIS) from which sites have

been assessed using straight line

as the crow flies distances using

the closest site boundary.

Housing & employment site

options - The Doncaster Cycle

Map (6th Edition) was published

in 2013 and is available to view

on the Council’s website via the

following web-link:

http://www.doncaster.gov.uk/ser

vices/transport-streets-

parking/cycling It is proposed

that the following cycle networks

will be used: Traffic-free paths,

sign posted cycle routes,

advisory routes, cycle lanes, and

bus and cycle lanes in order to

identify what we class as being

the cycle network for SA

purposes. Test assumes site

scores positive (+) if any part of

the site is within the 100m

buffer.

Yes

Yes

Yes

Public transport accessibility: Public transport accessibility to sites is an integral contributor and opportunity to

reduce the individuals need to use the private car for their everyday journeys (to the shop, to work etc.). By

ensuring that people have access to sustainable forms of transport, it can therefore have a significant impact on

reducing congestion, improve local air quality and increase public transport patronage. By locating sites near the

public transport network, this will help influence sustainable travel behaviour by providing residents with an

opportunity to use public transport as a realistic mode of transport. SYPTE welcomes development sites that are

located on the existing public transport network as this makes efficient use of current resources. By allocating

sites in these locations, a proactive approach to sustainable travel behaviour is being applied as public transport

options are available to the site before development of the site has begun.

Access to Cycle Network: Every route on the Doncaster Cycle Map has been cycled and evaluated and many of

the advisory routes have been suggested by local cyclists. The Map covers the whole of the borough and also

offers a means of interaction with cycle networks covered by adjacent Local Authorities.

Access to all services - for the purposes of all of the accessibility to services criteria, the Institution of Highways

& Transportation guidance Providing for Journeys on Foot (2000) has been used as a proxy for identifying the

distance buffers – generally using the ‘acceptable’ and ‘preferred maximum’ thresholds. Extract from the

guidance as per the table below, but available to view/ download in full via:

www.ciht.org.uk/download.cfm/docid/D66AD936-281C-4220-BF109289B5D01848

The tests score sites based on the closest boundary of the site and its proximity to the respective service being

tested. Distances have been established using GIS buffers and are ‘as the crow flies’ so may not reflect barriers

and actual walking routes on the ground.

Access to primary & secondary schools - Secondary schools have been afforded a larger distance buffer

compared to primary schools to

reflect the wider catchments normal

for a secondary school. Specialist

schools have been removed from

the assessment as they offer a

borough-wide catchment.

4. Ensure

resources are

available and

efficiently used

to sustain

development

and reduce

waste and

consumption

A) Energy

resources

• Reduce the reliance on, and

the consumption of, finite

fossil fuels

• Reduce greenhouse gas

emissions

• Reduce energy use and

encourage the production

and use of renewable energy

It is not considered that

this criteria is influenced

by the location of

development sites per

se, so the effects on all

site options will be

similar in SA terms –

scope out from

appraisal.

It is not considered that

this criteria is influenced

by the location of

development sites per se,

so the effects on all site

options will be similar in

SA terms – scope out from

appraisal.

n/a n/a Energy resources: All new development potentially increases use of energy resources. However, some sites may

provide renewable energy technologies, and all development is required to meet certain levels and standards set

by Building Regulations meaning it is not possible at plan-making stage to assess one development site over

another. This will be more relevant to the Development Management stage once actual details are known.

B) Minerals

and

constructio

n

• Reduce primary mineral

extraction

• Increase the use of recycled and

reclaimed aggregates

• Incorporate sustainable design

and construction practices

It is not considered that

this criteria is influenced

by the location of

development sites per

se, so the effects on all

site options will be

similar in SA terms –

scope out from

appraisal.

n/a n/a Minerals & construction: All new development will be expected to incorporate sustainable design and

construction practices and comply with minimum requirements as set by Building Regulations meaning it is not

possible at plan-making stage to assess one development site over another. This will be more relevant to the

Development Management stage once actual details are known.

C) Efficient

use of

waste

• Encourage reuse/recycling and

minimise waste

development sites per se,

so the effects on all site

options will be similar in

n/a n/a Efficient use of waste: All new development has the opportunity to provide recycling facilities as part of the

proposal to encourage recycling and minimise waste. Although it is noted that larger developments may provide

the critical mass to make waste collection more efficient for the local authority, it is not considered appropriate to

assess at plan-making stage. Every new dwelling will have standard local authority waste and recycling services

meaning the effects across all developments will be similar.

5. Provide

affordable, good

quality housing

that is available

to everyone,

including

vulnerable and

disadvantaged

groups

A)

Affordabilit

y

• Provide housing (including

affordable housing) that is

available to everyone to address

future needs

i. Affordability:

++ Site is being

proposed for 15+ units

capacity and likely to

trigger affordable

housing contribution

(100 units +)

+ Site is being

proposed for 15+ units

capacity and likely to

trigger affordable

housing contribution (up

to 100 units)

0 Site is being proposed

for 14 or less units

capacity and unlikely to

trigger affordable

housing contribution

- Not used

- - Not used

SA objective not relevant

to employment site

options – scope out from

appraisal

Housing site options - All sites

have a capacity assigned to

them as part of the HELAA stage

meaning the 15+ units threshold

can be established and applied

using this data.

No Affordability: Current planning policy requires sites with proposals for 15 units or more to provide affordable

housing contributions, either on-site or commuted sum in lieu of on-site provision. It is acknowledged that it is

however also possible for a site of 14 or less units to deliver affordable housing (as a rural exceptions site for

example) but it is not proposed to factor this into the appraisal.

n/a n/a Quality: All new developments should promote and encourage good quality design and deliver sustainable

development. At plan-making stage it is not considered appropriate to assess one site against another as the

effects are likely to be similar. The criteria is more relevant to the Development Management stage when detailed

proposals are known.

C) Mix and

range of

homes

• Ensure an appropriate mix of

housing, tenures and types

It is not considered that

this criteria is influenced

by the location of

development sites per

se, so the effects on all

site options will be

similar in SA terms –

scope out of appraisal

SA objective not relevant

to employment site

options – scope out from

appraisal

n/a n/a Mix & range of homes: All new housing developments should provide for an appropriate mx of house types

and tenures. Although a larger site provides more scope than a smaller site for a range of houses, smaller sites

cumulatively potentially provide greater scope for mix so not appropriate to assess site by site therefore as the

effects are likely to be similar. Such detail will not be known until the Development Management stage. A Local

Plan that provides for a variety of development allocations will most likely attract the full range of house builders

e.g. smaller sites will be attractive to the smaller/independent developers, and larger sites will appeal to the

volume house builders.

D)

Availability

• Increase the supply of housing

• Address areas of housing

market failure

Housing supply: All

potential housing site

options, if supported to

allocation, would be

expected to increase the

supply of housing so the

effects will be similar –

scope out of appraisal.

i. Market Failure:

++ Previous housing

site cleared to provide

for replacement housing

(100 units+)

+ Previous housing site

cleared to provide for

replacement housing (up

to 100 units)

0 Not a formerly

cleared housing site

- Not used

- - Not used

SA objective not relevant

to employment site

options – scope out from

appraisal

Housing site options –

colleagues in the Council’s Major

Projects’ Team can provide

information on schemes they are

bringing forward on former

housing sites that have been

cleared as part of recognised

programmes.

No Housing supply: All new housing developments should increase the supply of housing by their very nature. A

Local Plan that provides for a variety of development allocations will most likely attract the full range of house

builders e.g. smaller sites will be attractive to the smaller/independent developers, and larger sites will appeal to

the volume house builders.

Market failure: Doncaster’s housing market is relatively active, but there are areas where market weakness exists.

Many of these areas contain low cost housing and can be a target for landlords to purchase low value stock.

Much of the west of Doncaster was subject to Housing Market Renewal Pathfinder regeneration. Weaknesses in

the housing market in these areas resulted in the demolition of large sites of poor housing and many of these

sites have yet to be developed resulting in anti-social behaviour. However, there is a long-term expectation that

these will be delivered and plans are in place to redevelop them.

6. Reduce social

exclusion and

disadvantage

A) Social

exclusio

n

• Minimise disadvantage or

discrimination

• Ensure that as many people as

possible have good access to

shops and service

Although it is possible to

derive an objective test

based on the indices of

multiple deprivation

‘scores’, it is considered

this is more relevant to

the spatial strategy

rather than individual

site selection - scope out

of the appraisal.

Although it is possible to

derive an objective test

based on the indices of

multiple deprivation

‘scores’, it is considered

this is more relevant to the

spatial strategy rather than

individual site selection -

scope out of the appraisal.

n/a n/a Deprivation: Doncaster is the 39th most deprived borough out of 326 Local Authority areas in England and is the

3rd most deprived out of the 21 Local Authority areas in the Yorkshire & Humber region. It is the most deprived

area in South Yorkshire and the Sheffield City Region. Development within these most deprived areas will help

provide new housing stock and tenures in the area, support existing services and facilities, as well as provide

potential new employment opportunities and infrastructure which will help towards reducing social exclusion and

disadvantage, and reduce the gap between affluent and deprived areas.

B) Social

disadvan

tage

• Reduce concentrations of socio-

economic disadvantage

• Reduce the gap between

affluent and deprived areas

n/a n/a Attractive & distinctive places: This is most relevant to the Development Management stage. All sites have the

opportunity, through good design, to ensure attractive and distinctive places and communities are maintained/

created, including provision of new green spaces and trees through either on-site provision, or commuted sums

in-lieu of on-site provision towards existing green spaces etc.

B) Safety

and

security

• Promote buildings and

developments which are ‘secure

by design’

• Address anti-social behaviour

• Maximise the security of homes

and workplaces

• Reduce crime

• Reduce fear of crime

• Minimise risk to health and

safety

hazard sites. It also sets out a

number of consultation zones

(buffers) around the constraint.

Test scores negative (-) if any

part of the site is within HSE

consultation zone.

Yes Safety & security: some of these criteria are most relevant to the Development Management stage. All sites

have the opportunity, through good design, choice of materials, layout and orientation etc, to provide

developments that are well designed and ‘secure by design’, whilst natural surveillance will help address anti-

social behaviour thus helping to reduce both perceptions and incidents of crime.

Encourage the re-use of land and buildings: redeveloping brownfield land, including conversion of existing

buildings, provides the opportunity for efficient and effective use of land which is a relatively scarce asset, as well

as providing opportunity to use existing infrastructure availability/capacity first and foremost before new

infrastructure being necessary. Brownfield sites will also support renewal of existing housing areas.

Contaminated land - The late 18th century to the 20th century saw Doncaster emerge as an important industrial

center. Processes such as mining, waste disposal and manufacturing have left contamination such as heavy

metals, fuels, mining wastes in or on the land. This has left Doncaster with a legacy of potentially contaminated

land. The Contaminated Land Regime, which forms Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act, defines

contaminated land as: “any land, which appears to the local authority in whose area it is situated, to be in such a

condition. By reason of substances either in, on or under the land, that: 1) significant harm is being caused or

there is the significant possibility of such harm being caused; or, 2) pollution of controlled waters is being, or is

likely to be, caused

Landfill Sites - Landfill sites have previously been used for the disposal of domestic and industrial waste.

These former landfill sites may have been quarries or natural low laying land. After closure the site may have had

gas control measures installed, be ‘capped’ - sealed with layers of clay and top soil - and planted to restore it to

as close as possible to its natural appearance. Bacteria in the buried waste cause it to decompose, producing

landfill gas containing methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2). This process can last for more than 50

years. Methane has to be carefully disposed of as it is potentially flammable or explosive and is a potent

greenhouse gas. Pollution Control currently manages six closed sites and landfill gas is actively controlled at

three of these. Until a closed landfill is “risk assessed” it is impossible to determine the level of gas migration,

thus what remedial measures/ constraints are required, if any, to ensure it does not pose any unacceptable risk to

future site users. The risk assessment may identify development constraints, e.g. buildings precluded in an area,

or may require remediation measures, e.g. gas protection membranes. The risk assessment may determine the

risk from gas migration is minimal so no remediation/ constraints are required.

Unstable Land – The Coal Authority has mapped areas known as ‘Development High Risk Areas’ and is the part

of the coal mining reporting area which contains one or more recorded coal mining related features which have

the potential for instability or a degree of risk to the surface from the legacy of coal mining operations. The

combination of features included in this composite area includes mine entries; shallow coal workings (recorded

and probable); recorded coal mining related hazards; recorded mine gas sites; fissures and breaklines and

previous surface mining sites. New development in this defined area needs to demonstrate that the development

will be safe and stable taking full account of former coal mining activities. This area was formally known as the

Development Referral Area. Further information is available via:

Highways capacity: as part of the HELAA process (and subsequent correspondence), Highways England have

assessed all site options impact on the strategic road network using their Network Analysis Tool (NAT) and have

highlighted sites of most concern, including site specific comments and where mitigation will be required. HE

identified a number of small sites and concluded that they would have no significant impact on the SRN and so

these sites were not assessed using the NAT. These have been identified as + in line with the methodology

Likewise, sites that were assessed using NAT and do not generate 30 or more one-way trips on one or more links

on the network were concluded as having no significant impact and score +. Where there are more than 30 one-

way trips on one or more links on the SRN, the number of the primary strategic road network junction that is

affected is recorded. There are sites that generate substantial numbers of trips that are close to junctions on the

SRN even if they do not have a significant traffic impact on the SRN (30 or more one-way trips on one or more

links on the network). This is because development traffic may pass through the junction and worsen traffic

conditions on the gyratory with the possibility of causing queuing problems on slip roads. This has been

identified by judgment based on the size and location of the site, NAT output for the site, knowledge of the

network and the opportunities for traffic to cross the motorway using the junction.

Fibre broadband coverage: The ongoing commercial roll-out of fibre broadband funded by BT and Virgin

Media is currently expected to reach around 80% of premises across South Yorkshire. The remaining coverage

will be derived from the Superfast South Yorkshire project; a partnership between the South Yorkshire authorities

of Barnsley, Doncaster, Rotherham and Sheffield and BT, to specifically address and intervene in areas (primarily

rural premises across South Yorkshire) that are not commercially viable for providers to service without subsidy.

Within this current roll-out it is hoped to reach well over 100,000 premises with a fibre service by the end of 2018.

There are however a number of areas ‘under review’ where solutions are still to be identified. This is because:

there is currently no technical solution; the cost is prohibitively high to meet value for money; or, funding is not

yet available.

School capacity: It is generally accepted that the retention of a 5% level of surplus places is necessary in an area

to be able to facilitate parental preference and mid-year admissions, for flexibility in timetable planning and for

contingency planning. The Audit Commission document ‘Trading Places’ (2002 update) and School Places

Diagnostic Tool (2010) support this. The Red-Amber-Green ratings were applied using the following guide:

- Over Subscribed- Schools with 5% or less

surplus

0

Close to capacity/ maybe full in some

parts of the Pyramid - Schools with 5%-

10% surplus places

+ No Major concerns - Schools with 10% or

more surplus places

training is a key issue for diversifying the economy and closing the economic gap. Location of development sites

will not directly be a factor affecting skills and training as it will depend on the type of business locating on a site.

Rather improvement to skills and training will be tackled by a range of other corporate and city region strategies

although policies for commercial development could look to secure training and skills development plans.

Main River Flooding - Flood Risk Map for Planning: This map shows risk of flooding from main rivers without

consideration of protection from flood defences given there is always the possibility that they may fail/overtop.

The EA publish quarterly updates to this map. Although there are often no changes quarter to quarter, there have

been some instances where the map has changed in the borough over the past few years. The SFRA used the EA

Flood Map for Planning as at February 2015. However, there was a significant update to the EA Flood Map in

November 2015 at the same time that the Council published the Level 1 SFRA. There were significant changes to

the Flood Map at Thorne-Moorends. In order to ensure sites have been assessed against the latest flood risk

information the Council has replicated the SFRA through using GIS and updated the information on these sites

accordingly.

Surface Water Flooding: Surface water flooding is prevalent across the borough though judging from the

updated Flood Map for Surface Water (uFMfSW), risk is greatest in the northern, eastern and central areas where

the terrain is flatter and surface water can accumulate. However, there are certain locations where the probability

and consequence of these mechanisms are more prominent due to the complex hydraulic interactions in the

urban environment. Urban watercourse connectivity, sewer capacity, and the location and condition of highway

gullies all have a major role to play in surface water flood risk. The Level 1 SFRA assesses surface water risk to

each site according to the uFMfSW. The site assessment spreadsheet isolates each of the surface water outlines

so that any area of a site within the higher risk 1 in 30 year outline is excluded from the medium risk 1 in 100 year

outline and any area within the 1 in 100 year outline is excluded from the lower risk 1 in 1000 year outline. This

assessment of surface water risk to sites DOES NOT take account of local circumstances, only that part of a site

area falls within a surface water flood outline of the updated Flood Map for Surface Water.

Areas Benefiting from Flood Defences - EA map that identifies the areas that benefit from flood defences

shown, in the event of a river flood with a 1 per cent (1 in 100) chance of happening each year, or a flood from

the sea with a 0.5 per cent (1 in 200) chance of happening each year. If the defences were not there, these areas

would be flooded. Note, the EA caveat that this data may not show all defences.

Environment Agency (EA) Flood Warning or Alert Areas - The EA provide a free flood warning service for

many areas at risk of flooding from rivers and the sea. In some parts of England they can also tell property

owners when flooding from groundwater is possible. This free flood warning service can give advance notice of

flooding and can give property owners time to prepare.

Biodiversity: It is difficult to know whether a particular site allocation will ‘improve’ or ‘not improve’ a local

national or international site without knowing the details of the proposal and a site could be accompanied by a

suite of mitigation measures or detailed design choices that make an otherwise unacceptable development

acceptable. However, this criteria screens sites against a well-established hierarchy of nature conservation

designations and will help to identify where the most likely impacts from any potential development site option

will be. It is possible that some of the effects may be so significantly adverse that they are not capable of being

mitigated regardless of the detail of the proposal though. This methodology/approach has been advocated by

Natural England as a preferred way of assessing local plan site options (as per the Consultation response to the

November 2015 Draft Site Selection Methodology consultation)

Yes Landscape capacity: A Landscape Character and Capacity Assessment of Doncaster was carried out by ECUS Ltd

in 2006/2007 (March 2007). This study identifies and describes eight landscape character types in Doncaster. The

study assesses the overall landscape capacity of landscape character areas to accommodate different types of

development including housing and strategic employment. There are no broad areas of ‘high landscape capacity’

identified in the borough. In terms of employment sites, the study only looked at capacity to absorb strategic

distribution sites (B8 uses) so it is not possible to assess other employment sites except for those within urban

areas; the criteria reflects this. The study also identifies the capacity of some settlement edges, but this is not a

comprehensive assessment for all settlement edges across the borough, and not all sites will be located adjacent

to settlement edges anyway, so it is not proposed to take account of this information for this SA objective. A

further landscape study was published by Golders Associates (June 2010), but again did not look at complete

coverage for the whole borough, just certain areas. As such, it does not provide a complete assessment on which

to base comparatives for every site option on, so it is not proposed to use for the purposes of this SA.

Heritage impacts: It is difficult to provide a measurable objective test for impact on a heritage asset as it

depends on the ‘significance’ of the heritage asset which is qualitative and this can vary even between similar

heritage assets. It is further complicated by the fact that such an assessment ideally requires a level of detail and

knowledge of a proposed development scheme rarely known at site allocation stage, except for sites that have

already advanced through the planning process. The only assessment that can be made therefore is by a

qualitative assessment by a professional Conservation Officer in line with the best practice Historic England

guidance (Octob2015) available to view via: https://historicengland.org.uk/images-books/publications/historic-

environment-and-site-allocations-in-local-plans/

Archaeology: Existing cultural heritage assets and historic environment character data were assessed for each

site and its 250m buffer zone, in order to allow an assessment to be made of the archaeological potential and

significance of the sites and their suitability for development. Any major constraints such as the presence of

statutorily designated archaeological sites, significant non-designated archaeological sites and important historic

landscapes were also identified. Given a significant number of planning permissions are identified through the

latest annual monitoring report and being considered for allocation, having further site assessed in full for

archaeology it is not considered to be justifiable or a reasonably use of resources when extant permissions are in

place, many of which will have addressed archaeology as part of the Development Management stage.

Minerals Sterilisation: Economic prosperity and growth depends on an adequate and steady supply of minerals.

In Doncaster these predominately include aggregate limestone, sand and gravel (particularly sharp sand and

gravel which is used in construction to make concreting products). The evidence base indicates that sharp sand

and gravel is in short supply and extraction rates are below the national average. Coal deposits underlie much of

the borough (shallow coal to the west and deep coal to the east). Surface development proposals could impact

on aggregate minerals and shallow coal, but not deep coal. The data does not break down the sand and gravel

so the SA criteria reflects this uncertainty through assigning a ‘?’ as the effects are unknown/uncertain.

Agricultural Land Classification: The Provisional Agricultural Land Classification data that covers the whole of

England was done from 1967 to 1974. This dataset therefore provides a comprehensive assessment for the whole

of the borough on which to base an objective sustainability criteria test. The use of the provisional agricultural

land classification is considered sufficient for assessment of all sites across the borough. However, it is

acknowledged that selected areas were resurveyed in greater detail and to revised guidelines and criteria which

includes some areas of the borough, but this is not a complete survey on which to assess sites equally. Grades 1,

2 & 3a are classified as ‘best and most versatile agricultural land and have higher protection therefore compared

to other grades. There is no grade 1 agricultural land in the borough. Grades 4 and 5 are classed as poor and very

poor respectively. The agricultural land classification does not distinguish between grades 3a & 3b without

undertaking on site survey. Grade 3b is not best or most versatile agricultural land. Any site options that are

identified on grade 3 therefore will be assessed as ‘?’ (the effects are unknown/uncertain) due to the data

limitations. It is noted that some landowners/developers may provide on-site survey assessment to confirm grade

3 breakdown and the appraisal allows for such evidence to be reflected (0 or -).

Groundwater Source Protection – Groundwater provides a third of our drinking water in England and Wales,

and it also maintains the flow in many of our rivers. It is crucial that we look after these sources and ensure that

our water is completely safe to drink. The Environment Agency have defined Source Protection Zones (SPZs) for

2000 groundwater sources such as wells, boreholes and springs used for public drinking water supply. These

zones show the risk of contamination from any activities that might cause pollution in the area. The closer the

activity, the greater the risk. The maps show three main zones (inner, outer and total catchment) to a

groundwater source.

Pollution to Surface Water Bodies – development and construction sites can impact on adjacent water bodies

through run-off of contaminants and other sediment pollution into our waterways either disturbed or necessary

as part of the construction process. Potential pollutants could include: silt, cement and concrete, chemicals and

solvents, herbicides, or waste materials. These pollutants can impact on the quality of the water environment and

have a negative effect on wildlife and the wider water quality. Development sites close to the detailed river

network are more likely to cause this harm therefore through their proximity, although it is noted that a number

of good construction practices may limit and mitigate such occurrences e.g. collection of site wastewater and

choice/storage arrangements of construction materials/chemicals etc. The above, and 10m distance buffer,

reflects guidance from the Environment Agency’s Pollution Prevention Guidance Note:

Yes Air quality - The Doncaster air quality review and assessment of air quality in the borough confirms that the air

quality objectives are expected to be achieved in all but 7 areas of the borough, including parts of the town

centre and motorway corridors. The borough has 7 Air Quality Management Areas (AQMAs) where levels of road

traffic and congestion is the source of air pollution, alongside some other contributing factors such as

commercial and domestic properties. Any proposed land use site options within, or in close proximity to, these

AQMAs will potentially exacerbate the air quality situation further through increased traffic and vehicle emissions.

It is noted however that air quality can and shall be mitigated by air quality neutral development. Additionally

there may be areas that are not AQMAs but have poor air quality and introducing people to those areas could be

detrimental. It is important to recognise Defra’s modelled areas of exceedance which have been mapped and are

available to use. Development in these areas should be treated with the same level of consideration, as per the

NPPF. Many developments will need to mitigate for air quality based on detailed criteria that will not be available

until plans come forward through the Development Management stage.

i) Will the site impact on built heritage assets? -

Minor negative impact - Bentley Mill located immediately east of the Mill Farm site is described as grade 2 listed although this building is believed to have been demolished prior to the confirmation of listing in 1986. There is no evidence on site of the mill as described in the listing. Bentley Mill Farm has a number of vernacular agricultural buildings primarily to the east of the site of varying quality and condition which do not have any formal heritage designation. There are a number of historic limestone boundary walls within the site and on the boundary. These are a reminder of the previous historic character of the area and have may local heritage interest. The grade 2 listed St Peters Church is approximately 190m west of the site separated from it by an irregular field which is itself bounded by hedges and trees. The grade 2 listed Bentley Pinfold is 160m north west of the site and separated by dense housing development so this heritage asset is not affected.

A) Historic places

i) Will the site impact on built heritage assets? --

Major negative impact - The allocation site consists of 3 agricultural fields bounded by limestone walls within the Warmsworth Conservation Area. The conservation area is based on the historic core of Warmsworth which was a linear village following Low Road West subsequently divided by Warmsworth Hall. The character of the Warmsworth conservation area derives mainly from the rural and agricultural limestone buildings with clay pantile/stone tile roofs and limestone walling set around Warmsworth Hall and its grounds and confined between Warmsworth High Road and Low Road East/West. The allocation site includes the historic buildings and barns of West Farm one of which is grade 2 listed. Adjacent and overlooking the site is the grade 2 listed Warmsworth House. There are 5 other listed buildings within the conservation area including the grade 2* listed Warmsworth Hall with its separately listed grade 2 east and west gates.

B) Cultural heritage

Site Name: Bentley House, Jossey Lane, Scawthorpe

Source of Site: Permission

Site Size (ha) & Potential Capacity:

2.28Ha / 80 units

Brownfield/ Greenfield: Brownfield

Site Description: The site is brownfield and circa 2.28 hectares in size and is the Cementation Skanska works site, a specialist piling and ground engineering company that has been operating from this site for a vast number of years and is therefore well established. The site is capable of accommodating 80 dwellings based on the extant permission. The site is enclosed by the East Coast Main Line railway line to the East, Jossey Lane to the North and Pipering Lane East to the South East. To the South West of the site is a residential estate whereby the rear boundaries of a number of properties fronting onto Appleton Way and Bowland Close abut the boundary to the site. The North West boundary of the site is contained by the disused railway line that extends along the western side of the boundary and the rear of the adjacent housing estate. Residential properties are also located to the south and East of the site but are separated by Pipering Lane East and the East Coast railway line. The northern part of the site primarily contains Bentley House, a two storey pitched roof office block and provision for the outdoor storage of plant and machinery. Bentley House is proposed to be demolished as part of the rationalisation works. There are approximately 175 car parking spaces across the Bentley Works site. The majority of the site’s car parking provision is located on the very southern portion of the site, fronting onto Pipering Lane East. The works site in the southern part of the site has developed in an ad hoc manner over a period of time resulting in buildings of varying states of repair and appearance. Sitting centrally within the site is a static electric gantry crane, whilst to the south of the crane is the majority of the site’s built development.

Source of Site: Permission

Site Size (ha) & Potential Capacity:

41.41Ha / 600 units

Brownfield/ Greenfield: Brownfield

Site Description: The site extends to approximately 41.4 hectares in size and is located 2.7km to the north-east of Doncaster Town Centre. The site is capable of accommodation 600 dwellings based on its extant permission for a mixed use development and includes some employment related uses. There are five points of access dispersed along Wheatley Hall Road. The site is split into 2 parcels, namely: the Former McCormick Tractors (32 ha), and Riverdale Business Park (10 ha). The former McCormick Tractor site was occupied by McCormicks for the manufacturing of tractors (previously International Harvester). Following the cessation of this use and the removal of all plant and machinery by McCormick, the buildings were left in a poor condition and a semi-redundant state and were demolished in December 2009. Since then the site had an interim use by Ringways Motor Group for the display of cars and Pre-Delivery Inspection. This use has subsequently ceased. Riverdale Business Park has existed for a number of years, and continues to provide accommodation for a number of small businesses. The business park is under-utilised and has a number of vacant units. Within the north and north western boundaries of the site are two oxbow lakes, which formed part of the former River Don watercourse. Whilst the oxbow lakes are detached from the watercourse, they create parcels of land detached from the main site. Whilst formerly used for tipping material as a result of the industrial processes, these areas have become colonised by trees and represent an ecological asset. The site is bordered to the north by the River Don Navigation Channel, which runs parallel with Wheatley Hall Road. Beyond this is the River Don, railway lines and further beyond, open countryside. Moving eastwards, the site is adjoined by allotments and the Polypipe factory. Further beyond, is the Long Sandall Waste Water Treatment Works. The southern boundary of the site adjoins Wheatley Hall Road (A630), which is a dual lane carriageway. On the other side of Wheatley Hall Road there are a number of commercial uses including Wheatley Retail Park, Wheatley Hall Trade Park, the site of the former Tyco factory which is undergoing mixed-use development. To the south-west of the site, beyond Wheatley Hall Road the area is largely residential, which in part fronts directly onto Wheatley Hall Road. To the west is the Parklands Sport and Social Club and its associated playing fields and recreational area. Wheatley Hall Road is generally a retail/commercial road into the town centre with heavy concentration of car showrooms.
