SHLAA - Denton Holme
Deliverable
Site Reference: CA49 - Land at Nelson Street, Carlisle
Location: Land at
Nelson Street Carlisle CA2 5BJ
Housing Potential: Deliverable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: The majority of the site is
allocated for housing in the Local Plan, (2.85 ha, 103
dwellings). Planning application 04/1339 for residential
development (outline) was issued subject to a Section 106 on
12/01/09. Under this application, the office building on the
western end of the site is to be retained for UU use. It is
considered that the site should continue to be allocated for
housing development.
Site Reference: CA63 - Former Penguin Factory
Location: Former
Penguin Factory Westmorland Street Carlisle
Housing Potential: Deliverable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: Application 07/1312
(decision issued 31/08/2010) received planning permission for the
erection of 58no. Dwellings, an internal access road, associated
car parking and landscaping. The dwellings would comprise
28no. 3 bedroom townhouses together with 6no. 1 bedroom apartments
and 24no. 2 bedroom apartments. The buildings would be
arranged with a three storey building situated in the south-east
corner of the site accommodating apartments in the western portion
and houses along the northern and eastern flanks.
A vehicular access leading from Westmorland Street separates the
apartment buildings from the seven town house buildings along the
northern boundary. Further to the west, adjacent to Colville
Street, it is proposed to construct a courtyard type development
with the opening facing west and a vehicular access taken from the
rear lane that serves Colville Street. This building would
also contain a mixture of houses and apartments, with the latter
flanking the boundary with the River Caldew.
To the south of this building is another vehicular access into
the site whereby a terrace of seven townhouses would be
constructed.
Developable
Site Reference: CA31 - Site at Dalston Road
Location: Site at
Dalston Road/Stanhope Road, Carlisle, CA2 5TS
Housing Potential: Developable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: The site has been recently
cleared. It is allocated for Mixed Use development in the
Local Plan. Policy H16 makes provision for up to 70% of the
site to be developed for residential use and 30% for employment
use. It is recognised that the site has been under-used for a
significant period of time, and subject to there being no demand
for employment over a period of time, there is potential for the
whole site to be developed for housing.
Site Reference: CA53 - Rome Street-railway land
Location: Rome
Street/railway land
Housing Potential: Developable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: Although the outline planning
permission granted consent for a total of 151 dwellings on this
site, the reserved matters application, (08/0051) seeks consent for
just 98 units. The outline application envisaged a greater
number of apartments, but since the outline consent was obtained
the applicant has assessed the local market and believes the number
of flats built in Carlisle has reached saturation point.
Discussions have taken place between the agent and the City
Council, and it was agreed that an application for a reduced number
of units would be acceptable, so more houses could be accommodated,
as long as a minimum net density of 30 dwellings per hectare could
be achieved, in line with the requirements of PPS3. The
Environment Agency has no objections to this application but has
recommended numerous conditions. The majority of these conditions
are already covered by the outline consent and are therefore
unnecessary. One condition in relation to finished
floor levels is recommended for inclusion as the site is within a
zone 3 Flood Risk Area. In overall terms, the principle of the
development was established as acceptable through the approval of
the outline application. The access to be formed and the
anticipated level of traffic generated by the proposal would not
prejudice highway safety. In all aspects the proposal is compliant
with the objectives of the adopted Local Plan policies, subject to
the imposition of three further planning conditions for the reasons
detailed above.
Site Reference: CA56 - Bousteads Grassing Depot, Rome
Street
Location: Bousteads
Grassing Depot Rome Street Carlisle
Housing Potential: Developable (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This is a brownfield site that
is currently occupied by Carlisle City Council and is used as a
depot with associated offices. Land to the north is
allocated for residential development and to the south is a
designated Primary Residential Area. There are some constraints on
this site; gas pipelines run through the majority of the site area,
the land lies within Flood Zones 2 and 3 and, it is adjacent to the
River Caldew SSSI. This land may contain contamination due to its
former uses.
No Potential
Site Reference: CA01 - Mitchell Dryers
Location: Mitchell
Dryers, Denton Holme, Carlisle
Housing Potential: None (Email
us about this site)
Site Assessment: This brownfield site is
currently designated as a Primary Employment Area and is currently
partially in use for engineering production, partially vacant, and
partially in a temporary use (storage of rental vehicles).
The main occupier is searching for an alternative production
facility within the next five years. The three sites together
amount to over two hectares of employment land. The Council
would encourage the retention of this site as it is currently in
employment use. The sites all lie within Flood Zone 3a,
although this area benefits from the recent construction of flood
defences. As such, housing (which is classed as a more
vulnerable use in Table D:2 of PPS 25), would only be allowed on
these sites if the Exception Test is passed, i.e. The development
would provide wider sustainable benefits to the community that
outweigh flood risk. Employment uses are less vulnerable, and
would therefore continue to be appropriate uses in this area.
