SHLAA - Brampton
Deliverable
Site Reference: BR01 - Land North of Old Church Lane (Adj 'Red
Barn')
Location: Land North
of Old Church Lane (Adj 'Red Barn'), Brampton
Housing Potential: Deliverable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This is a greenfield site in
agricultural use which currently lies outside the settlement
boundary for Brampton. Although the majority of the site is
physically and visibly separated from Brampton by Kirby Moor school
and playing fields, both in location and landscape terms there is
potential for part of the site to provide housing for the long term
future development of Brampton. This site has been
looked at in tandem with BR 03, as the two sites together have
potential for additional housing on the northern edge of
Brampton.
Site Reference: BR03 - Land Adj Garth House
Location: Land Adj
Garth House, Brampton
Housing Potential: Deliverable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: The site is well related to
existing housing areas in Brampton, bordering Dacre Road/Howard
Road to the east and Greenfield Lane, (Garth House and Rosalyn) to
the south. However, the site has important open views towards the
west, and is crossed by a public footpath. There is some potential
on the southern portion of the site for a limited amount of housing
development.
Site Reference: BR06 - Garth House, Greenfield Lane
Location: Garth
House, Greenfield Lane, Brampton
Housing Potential: Deliverable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: Whilst this site is part of
the garden of Garth House, it is designated as urban fringe
landscape and lies outside the settlement boundary for Brampton.
Garth House is a Grade II listed building and has extensive
surrounding gardens. Both the house and gardens are well
screened by mature trees that fringe the site and are protected by
a tree preservation order. There are two entrance points to
the plot, both accessed via Greenfield Lane. The enclosed nature of
this site suggests there is scope for residential development on
part of the site, subject to impact on the listed building, and
relationship with the adjacent site.
Site Reference: BR07 - Land Adj Gelt Rise
Location: Land Adj
Gelt Rise, Gelt Road, Brampton
Housing Potential: Deliverable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This is a Greenfield site
which abuts the limits of the settlement boundary of Brampton and
lies within Brampton Conservation Area. It is identified as
urban fringe landscape. To the north and west of the site there is
substantial residential development. Land to the south west
provides recreation grounds for the town which is screened from
this site by trees and bushes. The site is currently greenfield,
agricultural land with other agricultural fields to the east and
south. It is well located in relation to all amenities within the
town, including recreation grounds and bus stops, therefore
enhancing its sustainability. In terms of the suitability of the
site for housing, its location and accessibility are good, and the
site is well related to surrounding residential development and
amenities within the town. Therefore, there is potential for
residential development on this site.
Site Reference: BR08 - Land West of Kingswater Close
Location: Land West of Kingswater Close,
Greenhill, Brampton
Housing Potential: Deliverable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This is greenfield land which
abuts the settlement boundary for Brampton. It is identified within
the local plan as Urban Fringe Landscape. Housing areas
adjoin the site on three sides and there is agricultural grazing
land to the south. A public footpath runs along the western and
southern boundary which connects with the public recreation ground
laying to the south east of the site. The site is located close to
local bus routes which increases its sustainability. In terms
of the suitability of the site for housing, its location is good
and the site is well related to surrounding residential development
and amenities within the town. Therefore, there is potential for
residential development on this site.
Site Reference: BR11 - Land at Elmfield
Location: Land at Elmfield
Housing Potential: Deliverable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This is a large
Greenfield site on the edge of Brampton. Whilst it is acknowledged
that the development of this site would encroach upon the open
countryside, it is felt that relates well to the existing form of
the settlement. Any development on this site would need to provide
improved sustainable transport connections with the Brampton town
centre. It is considered to be a viable site with the potential to
come forward for development within the first 5 years of the new
plan period.
Developable
Site Reference: BR04 - Brampton Infant School
Location: Brampton
Infant School, Moat Street, Brampton
Housing Potential: Developable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This brownfield site lies
within the settlement boundary of Brampton and is adjacent to a
residential area. Moat Street serves a number of older style small
terraced properties, and a number of larger detached properties on
larger plots, which are accessed from an extremely narrow side
lane. There is little off-street parking. Cars are parked on
the eastern side of the street, virtually nose to tail. Turning is
extremely difficult due to the width of the road. Access is
therefore likely to be a major issue. If this issue can be
overcome by design, e.g. A zero car development, or an appropriate
and suitable access and turning point, then this site would be
suitable for a small housing development, (subject to access for
emergency vehicles). Overcoming the access constraints may
make this site unviable in the short-term.
Site Reference: BR10 - Land off Edmondson Close
Location: Land off
Edmondson Close, Brampton
Housing Potential: Developable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This large Greenfield
site would be an extension to the new Edmundson Close development
on the east side of Brampton. There are concerns regarding access,
particularly for a potentially large site, but it is felt that
there is long term potential for this land.
No Potential
Site Reference: BR02 - Land Between The Grange, Craw Hall,
Brampton & Paving Brow Properties
Location: Land Between The Grange, Craw Hall,
Brampton & Paving Brow Properties
Housing Potential: None (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: The site forms part of the
garden of The Grange, which although not listed, is a building of
some character. The house, together with its extensive surrounding
grounds (BR09 and this site), make a positive amenity and landscape
contribution to the conservation area. The land is designated as
Urban Fringe Landscape and lies outside the settlement boundary for
Brampton. The site is fringed by mature trees, is gently undulating
and crossed by Brampton Beck which flows into a small pond within
the site. The constraints imposed on this site by the trees, access
issues, pond, beck and prominent location within the conservation
area make it unsuitable for housing development.
Site Reference: BR05 - The Irthing Centre, Union Lane
Location: The Irthing Centre, Union Lane,
Brampton
Housing Potential: None (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This is a brownfield site
within the settlement boundary for Brampton. It is identified as a
Primary Employment Area on the Local Plan proposals map. Some of
the buildings are currently used as the Community Centre for
Bramton. The site was also home to Brampton Business Centre, which
has now closed. The site has in the past been considered as one of
two sites for a new medical facility to replace the Brampton
Cottage Hospital. These negotiations are no longer ongoing.
The main issue is therefore the loss of a local employment site.
The Economic Action Plan drawn up by Brampton Economic Partnership
identifies business improvement and investment as a priority,
together with identifying and developing business opportunities and
business diversification through the use of redundant or under
utilised buildings.
As such this site should be retained for its potential to
provide a future local employment site.
Site Reference: BR09 - Land at The Grange,
Location: Land at The Grange, Craw Hall,
Brampton
Housing Potential: None (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This site is an extension to
BR 02. The site is dominated by mature trees which are protected by
virtue of being located within Brampton Conservation Area.
Another large feature within the site is Fountain Pond, a low lying
body of water between the house and Craw Hall. Development of
this site would be difficult without having an adverse impact on
the existing house, the mature trees and the pond, all of which
contribute to the character of this part of the conservation
area.
Site Reference: BR12 - Land at Ridge Vale
Location: Land at Ridge Vale, Brampton
Housing Potential: None (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: Small Greenfield site, poorly
related to the settlement and with no visible means of access.
Site Reference: OC11 - Land at Quarry Bank Lane, Capon Tree
Hill
Location: Land at
Quarry Bank Lane Capon Tree Hill Brampton
Housing Potential: None (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This is a greenfield site that
is physically and visibly separated from the settlement boundary
for Brampton by a significant distance. The site is too small
to be able to make a strategic contribution to housing in
Brampton. The development of this site would be contrary
to NPPF Housing, which states that housing should be developed
in suitable locations which offer a range of community facilities,
and with good access to jobs, key services and
infrastructure.
Site Reference: OC37 - Land at New Mills, Brampton
Location: Land at New
Mills, Brampton
Housing Potential: None (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This is a large greenfield
site which lies within a Landscape of County Importance. The
site lies a significant distance from the settlement boundary for
Brampton. It therefore lies within open countryside.
The development of this site for housing would be contrary
to NPPF Housing which states that housing should be
developed in suitable locations which offer a range of facilities,
and with good access to jobs, key services and
infrastructure. Furthermore the priority for development
should be previously developed land.
The RSS for the North West reflects NPPF. Policy RDF 2
states that development in rural areas should be concentrated in
key and local service centres.
The development of this site for a retirement community would be
particularly unsuitable due to the distance of the site from the
centre of Brampton and all the associated medical, social and
retail facilities likely to be required.
