This facility currently provides flats for elderly persons but has been identified for clearance and replacement. Part of a scheme to renew social housing stock and provide more fitting accommodation. There are 35 one-bedroom housing units in situ, a mixture of bedsits and very small flats, which are not suitable for modern needs. Permission was granted in 2021 for demolition of the existing building and construction of a new care home of 34 units (19/01223/FUL). The current accommodation are considered self-contained units, so the clearance will result in a corresponding loss. Therefore, the net impact will be a loss of 1 units from the overall housing stock on completion of the new facility. Clearance of the site, and therefore the loss of 35 units, was completed in 2022/23. The replacement dwellings are expected to be completed in the next five years. | 2019-11-19 | 2024-12-12 | ||

This includes an application for a supermarket a number of years ago, refused after being called-in by the secretary of state (A/2001/0331). Two independent proposals for redevelopment have been progressed since clearance, with two sub-parcels identified to reflect this (0220a, 0220b). A scheme for 9 dwellings on the western parcel (0220a) was permitted in 2018 (17/02409/FUL). Subsequently, the site was sold and the permission has now lapsed due to non-implementation. Future availability is unknown, but the potential for development in the medium- to longer-term is still considered to exist.

A reserved matters consent followed in 2008, for demolition of the existing house and construction of 9 dwellings in replacement (A/2008/0289). As a result of the works, there would be a net gain of 8 dwellings on completion. Initial works commenced in 2014. Another application for construction of 1 further dwelling was approved in 2014 (14/00205/FUL). This s identified as the replacement for the former dwelling, which has already been cleared, and is known as plot-9). Despite there being no substantive progress to date on the residential aspect of the development, the permission has been implemented through initial highways/access works. However, landowner has recently advised the site is no longer available for development. Whilst the permission will not lapse, and the theoretical capacity from the extant planning permission remains, the future delivery of all outstanding units is currently discounted. If/when new information becomes available to suggest a change to this position, then deliverability can be appraised. | 2017-12-17 | 2024-12-17 | |||

This land had been identified as redevelopment opportunity for several years, including being earmarked as part of proposals for redevelopment of a much larger area of land. Earlier permission included provision for 127 apartments and associated retail and office development, but lapsed without implementation (A/2006/0500). A revised scheme construction of 17 apartments, in three five-storey blocks, as part of a mixed-use redevelopment permitted (13/03731/FUL). This only related to this particular parcel.

A range of industrial and commercial buildings remain on-site, all now vacant and somewhat dilapidated. The site lies immediately adjacent to the Grade II* listed Governor's House and, although not directly impacted by the proposal, it remains important for context and setting. The complex comprises of 12 discreet but largely inter-connected buildings. Some of these require demolition prior to redevelopment of the site. The history of this site is linked to an associated but geographically separate parcel of land to the north (1046b). An initial application for 66 dwellings covered both site and was permitted in 2011 (N/06/B/0714). Since then, the two schemes have largely progressed independently, essentially as two phases to a wider development. However, the two parcels remained linked through the extant planning permissions. This record is for phase-1. Specifically for this parcel, the original permission was for selective demolition of redundant non-listed buildings and construction of 15 new-build homes, alongside the alteration and conversion of a Grade II listed former pottery to create 6 further dwellings. The conversion element was also subject to separate listed building consent, first permitted in 2009 and renewed in 2012 (N/06/B/0719, 12/01222/LBC). Phase-1 of the scheme has now been delivered, after a development of 21 dwellings was completed in 2016 (1046a). There has been no progress to date with the residential aspect of phase-2 (1046b). However, the original 2006 permission for the remaining site will not lapse, as the overall permission has been implemented. Taking account of amendments to the original scheme, the overall scheme will see the delivery of 66 dwellings on final completion. Phase-1 (1046a) completed in 2016/17. | 2016-06-30 | 2023-12-07 | 2020-12-08 | ||

A range of industrial and commercial buildings remain on-site, all now vacant and somewhat dilapidated. These require demolition prior to redevelopment of the site. The history of this site is linked to an associated but geographically separate parcel of land to the south (1046a). An initial application for 66 dwellings covered both site and was permitted in 2011 (N/06/B/0714). Since then, the two schemes have largely progressed independently, essentially as two phases to a wider development. However, the two parcels remained linked through the extant planning permissions. This record is for phase-2. Specifically for this parcel, the original permission was for demolition of the redundant garage, workshops and outbuildings, remediation and construction of a mix of 45 new-build houses and apartments. A subsequent application to amend the initial scheme, reducing this phase to 37 units, was permitted in 2013 (13/00471/FUL). There has been no progress to date with the residential aspect of phase-2 (1046b). The 2013 amendment to the scheme has now lapsed. However, the original 2011 permission remains extant, through implementation and completion of phase-1. This means the yield reverts to the original total, 66 dwellings overall, with 45 outstanding for phase-2 (1046b). The site was sold in 2021, with the new owner recently confirming that they are looking to take forward redevelopment. This may be by delivering the permitted design or after approval of a new scheme. Phase-2 is forecast for completion in the next five years. | 2016-06-30 | 2023-12-07 | ||

Occupied by a range of existing buildings, largely vacant, but some of which are part occupied by temporary tenants. The premises include two Grade II listed former smokehouses, along with some more modern commercial blocks, and also an existing dwelling. Opportunity exists for redevelopment, likely to involve a combination of conversion of some buildings, demolition of others, and new-build construction. Planning permission was secured in 2017 for development of 13 units after selected clearance (15/03346/FUL). Works proposed involved demolition of Herrings Yard and the low-quality dilapidated 1960s industrial buildings to the north of the site. The latter are in disrepair and considered an eyesore. The listed smokehouses to the south of the site will see work to form a wing of one of the residential properties. The final element is for works to the existing residential property and corner office, which will be retained and renovated. However, site works did not commence before two revised applications were submitted in March 2021 for smaller elements of overall site. Firstly, for conversion of the unlisted 'Bay View' to 1 dwelling (21/01048/FUL). This building was previously identified for demolition in the larger 2015 scheme. Secondly, conversion of the existing 'unit-2' to create 2 dwellings (21/01150/FUL). This property was earmarked for similar works in original scheme. Both of these applications have been permitted and are classified as 'small sites' in the SHLAA. Subsequently, the original permission for 13 dwellings has lapsed due to non-implementation. It is likely that smaller redevelopment projects will be progressed. No longer considered developable/developable and future housing delivery is discounted in the SHLAA. | 2017-12-17 | 2024-11-21 | 2023-12-18 | ||

A hybrid application was approved for demolition of modern agricultural buildings, conversion of remaining traditional farm buildings to create 2 units and construction of a further 16 new-build homes in July 2020 (19/04097/FUL). The scheme comprised of full permission for the conversion works and outline permission for the remaining new-build homes A reserved matters application for the 16 new-build homes was permitted in April 2024 (23/02727/REM).

This has been identified for redevelopment for a number of years and has been subject to several planning applications. Initial outline consent was granted a number of years ago in 2005 (CM/04/D/854). A reserved matters permission for 11 dwellings followed later in 2005 (CM/05/D/522). A subsequent application was permitted in 2015, and made an amendment to the original scheme, reducing the overall total to 9 homes (15/01216/FUL). At the same time as the original applications were progressing, a parallel application for demolition of the main Coningsby House and erection 1 dwelling as replacement was also permitted in 2006 (CM/06/D/202). No net gain results from these additional works, so the total net yield from the whole site remains at 9 dwellings. Works commenced on the overall scheme in 2006 and majority of scheme was completed some time ago. The penultimate dwelling was finished in 2017/18 which left only 1 plot outstanding. This dwelling has remained unfinished since. Whilst the permission will not lapse, and the theoretical capacity from the extant planning permission remains, the future delivery of the outstanding unit is currently discounted. If/when new information becomes available to suggest a change to this position, then deliverability can be appraised. | 2017-12-17 | 2025-12-16 | |||

All the former colliery buildings have been cleared and only a few remnants of industrial infrastructure remain across the wider site. This offers a significant redevelopment opportunity to the north of Blyth town centre. The land requires extensive remediation due to the former use. The original outline permission for 327 homes across the whole site was granted in 2009 (08/00169/OUT). A detailed permission for 257 homes then followed in 2013 (12/03370/REM). The remediation works were carried out following this. A revised application was then approved in 2017 for phase-1 of the development (16/04622/FUL). This involves development of 142 two-, three- and four-bed semi and detached dwellings, on a smaller element of the site (4573a). Works commenced in 2018. Development of 8 dwellings completed in 2023/24. The remainder of the site, theoretically having a yield of 115 homes, is identified on a separate record (4573b). NB - since securing the initial reserved matters, the eastern part of the site initially identified for residential development, but subsequently excluded from the 2017 revised scheme, has been sold to the Port of Blyth (4573b). This parcel is to be utilised for port-related employment uses and is no longer available for housing residential development. As a result, the indicative balance of 115 dwellings from the original permission for 257 homes is now discounted in the SHLAA. A further sub-parcel covered by the original outline consent, now the site of a new school, is also identified separately (4573c). | 2016-06-30 | 2024-12-06 | 2024-12-06 | |

This includes the Grade II listed Damdykes Farmhouse and outbuildings, additional outbuildings further to the north, and the remainder being paddock/grazing land. The existing buildings were occupied until 2005 but have since being vacated have deteriorated significantly and much of the dressed stone and original roofs having been removed. This has rapidly accelerated the structural decay of the listed buildings. The farmstead has been identified for redevelopment for a number of years. An initial application for conversion of the listed agricultural buildings to create 5 dwellings was permitted in 2007 (B/07/00143/RES). However, given the deterioration, it was not considered viable to restore the majority of the listed buildings and this consent lapsed. A revised proposal was put forward, as reappraisal meant new-build development was seen as necessary to support any restoration. Permission was later secured for a total of 20 dwellings in 2011 (11/01273/FUL). The works involved construction of 19 new-build dwellings, and provision of a further unit through conversion and restoration of the Grade II listed farmhouse. Subsequently, a partial revision to the scheme, relating only to the existing farmhouse, was permitted in 2017 (16/01624/FUL). This involved an amendment to the proposed works, with the listed farmhouse being converted to provide 4 dwellings, rather than a single home as previously permitted. To provide clarity, the new-build and conversion projects have been split into separate but associated records (4783a, 4783b). The impact on this is therefore to reduced the yield of the main record for the new-build scheme to 19 dwellings. Development commenced in 2016 and the final units were completed in 2022/23. NB - the remaining 4 units at the steading (barn conversions) permitted in 2017 are now recorded as a small site in the SHLAA (4783b). Works commenced for this project in 2019 but are yet to be completed. | 2017-12-17 | 2023-12-08 | 2023-12-07 | |

Located within an established residential area in Ashington. Identified for demolition and redevelopment a number of years ago. Initial permission was granted for 8 flats following clearance of the site in 2006 (06/00263/FUL). This was then superseded by a revised proposal for construction of 6 dwellings, dating from 2007 (07/00412/FUL). The scheme comprised 4 houses and 2 flats. Construction commenced in 2008 and the 4 houses were completed in 2010. A start was made on the pair of one-bed flats before works halted. A subsequent application was permitted in 2013 to amend the approved scheme, substituting the 1 house for the 2 apartments (13/01475/FUL). Whilst either option could have been delivered, it is the revised proposal that was progressed. The overall development therefore totals 5 units and has now been completed.

Following this, another permission was then secured for works including renovation and conversion of existing vacant building to create 3 units, along with alteration to the main house (14/00647/FUL). It is understood that both applications have been implemented and therefore either scheme could be delivered. After a significant hiatus, a start was made on unit-3 in 2020.

The steading comprises a mix of traditional and more modern agricultural buildings, all of which are now redundant to farming use. The traditional buildings are listed and offer an opportunity for sensitive conversion, mindful of the adjacent Grade II* listed Manor. An application for alteration and conversion of the listed farm buildings to create 5 dwellings was permitted in 2020 (19/03490/FUL). The proposed works also included demolition of modern barns and extension to an existing unoccupied cottage (no net gain from this aspect). The landowner set out that a phased development was envisaged, based on owners ability to afford and finance build-out. However, no start was made on the works within the necessary timeframe and the permission has now lapsed.

The land has been subject to several applications over recent years, and a number of applications are relevant, together enabling the final development of 5 dwellings. An initial outline permission for demolition of the vacant garage and construction of 3 dwellings was permitted in 2004 (N/04/B/0309). This was followed by a reserved matters application for construction of these 3 dwellings, permitted in 2009 (N/09/B/0494). This detailed approval was for plot-1, plot-2, and plot-3. After this, the scheme was redesigned and proposals were made to change the layout and increase the yield to a total of 5 homes. These alterations did not increase the site area, simply provided a more intensive scheme on the same land area. Detailed applications have followed for the final 2 units and also for the redesign of 1 dwellings that was permitted earlier. To date, 4 dwellings have been completed, but the final unit (plot-5) remains under-construction.

In use since the late 1940s, the site has gradually expanded and developed, initially as smaller villa-type 'dwellings' and latterly with larger, modern buildings. Parts of the site have been identified for redevelopment in recent years following the restructure of the hospital facilities in the Morpeth area, including a number of buildings being identified for demolition. This scheme is also part of wider development of large area of land that is linked to the Morpeth 'Northern Bypass' scheme. This record relates to the westernmost parcel (3079a). Brownfield element (8.94ha) represents around 66% of the site area but the identified yield reflects a focus on the footprint of the existing buildings. For indicative purposes in the BF Register, the original SHLAA site (ref 3079) is split to reflect brownfield and greenfield elements - total area of 13.56ha. The initial application encompassed the whole site (3079a, 3079b, 3079c). Permitted in 2011, it comprised a hybrid application for demolition of a range of redundant buildings, development of new hospital facilities, and construction of 250 dwellings (11/01439/FUL). This proposal included full permission for demolition of 12 redundant hospital buildings and the construction of a new secure mental health unit ('Villa 19'). A reserved matters application for construction of 225 dwellings was then permitted in 2014 (14/02318/REM). As part of the overall mix, 45 affordable homes were to be provided.

The site was originally utilised for agricultural purposes, at one time operating as a poultry farm, but has since been used for a range of other uses. The premises were last occupied by Goodwill Wood Shavings for the manufacturing of timber products for commercial sale, but the business is now closed and the site is available for redevelopment. Part of the site was utilised as an associated haulage yard, enabling repair and maintenance of vehicles, as well a space for open-air storage of machinery, equipment, scrap and trailers. A collection of dilapidated sheds, workshops, silos, hoppers, storage facilities remain in situ. These are a mixture of types and styles, the majority being poor-quality structures of wood, breezeblock and corrugated iron sheet, all now derelict.

The proposed scheme was to see the development of a new retail unit with 6 apartments at first-floor level, alongside the construction 16 further houses. However, this permission lapsed due to non-implementation. Since then, a number of applications relating to continued use for retail purposes have been permitted.

An initial application, for a total of 13 dwellings through a mix of conversion and construction of new-build homes, was permitted in 2018 (17/01286/FUL). However, this was not commenced and a revised application, again for 13 units, was then submitted and approved in 2020 (18/01207/FUL). The scheme involves a combination of selective demolition, alteration and conversion of the existing buildings, and construction of new-build homes. A number of traditional agricultural buildings are to be converted to create 6 dwellings, alongside the construction of a further 7 new-build dwellings.
