Site HA2 is allocated for 95 dwellings, but is also recognised as suitable for ‘Housing for Older and Disabled People’ (Policy 4e use).
However, the SHLAA Site Assessments September 2012, concluded that the site was unsuitable for family housing, mainly because of poor accessibility to schools.
The site remains unsuitable for family housing as no new schools have been provided locally, no footpaths provided to improve pedestrian access and no new infrastructure exists. The site is poorly served by public transport. A self -contained facility, such as a care home/village, could be accommodated without significantly impacting on local facilities.
