SHLAA - Monkhill

Site Reference: MO01- Land Adj Monkhill Farm, Monkhill

Location: Land Adj Monkhill Farm, Monkhill

Housing Potential: None (Email us about this site)

Site Assessment: The site is a disused market garden, with a number of vacant buildings.  It lies on the eastern edge of Monkhill, opposite the pub.  It also lies on the course of the Vallum associated with Hadrian's Wall Military Zone WHS.  Monkhill lies approximately three miles west of Carlisle, and whilst it is on a bus route, the timetable for this route indicates that the nearest stop is Burgh or Beaumont. The village is a second tier settlement under Policy H1 of the CDLP.

Currently only infill development is allowed where it is evidenced by local need to be in that location. It is unlikely that this policy stance will change, due to the low level of local services in Monkhill. 

There are also issues with the scale of the proposed site is relation to the size of the village.  The site is therefore unlikely to be suitable for housing development.
