SHLAA - Durdar
Developable
Site Reference: DU03- Land at Durdar Farm
Location: Land at
Durdar Farm
Housing Potential: None (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This is a partly
brownfield and is large for a settlement the size of Durdar. Durdar
has little in the way of services, but it lies close to both
Carlisle and Dalston and therefore the argument can be made that it
would be a sustainable location. United Utilities have indicated
that any development of this site would need to take place after
2015 in order for planned water treatment works improvements to be
completed. This site has long term potential.”No

Site Reference: DU01- 467 Durdar Road, Carlisle
Location: 467 Durdar
Road, Carlisle
Housing Potential: None (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This is a greenfield site
which lies just outside the built edge of Durdar, a 2nd tier
settlement under Policy H1. Currently only small scale
infilling for local needs housing is allowed in these
locations. The development of this site would double the size
of the existing settlement. Whilst Durdar has a low level of
local services, it is within two miles of the urban area boundary
for Carlisle. One of the issues for the Core Strategy to
address is whether it is a sustainable option for such villages to
expand. This is a greenfield site which lies just outside the built

Site Reference: DU02 - Adj 445 Durdar Road, Carlisle
Location: Adj 445
Durdar Road Durdar
Housing Potential: None (Email

Site Assessment: This is a predominantly
greenfield site on the edge of Durdar, which a second tier
settlement under Policy H1. Currently the only housing
development allowed in such settlements is small scale infilling
evidenced by local need to be in that location. The site also
includes part of three domestic gardens. Little is to be
gained by including this land, especially in respect of 449 Durdar
Road, which would leave the site with virtually no usable garden to
the rear. The form of the site is relatively narrow, with the
bulk of the site area being to the rear of existing properties on
Durdar Road. It is difficult to envisage how comprehensive
and integrated development could be accommodated on this
site.
However, the issue of whether the range of small villages within a
2 mile radius of Carlisle should or could accommodate some growth
will be a question for the Core Strategy Consultation. In
theory 2 miles is a short enough distance to make walking or
cycling trips possible, and to encourage the use of public
transport. Nevertheless an assessment needs to be made as to
how likely this is from each village within a 2 mile radius of
Carlisle.
