| 0018x | 0018x | Land South West of Swanfield Park, Alnwick (brownfield parcel) | POINT (-1.719469 55.401865) | https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/fa5b04e3dc8a4e439eb393d0ca64b0d8/ | 0.48 | not-owned-by-a-public-authority | not-permissioned | https://publicaccess.northumberland.gov.uk/online-applications/propertyDetails.do?activeTab=relatedCases&keyVal=NTKWB4QS0GA00 | 5 | 5 | Builders yard, stables and small amount of associated land, brownfield in part. The site has also been utilised as a scrapyard in the past. Peripheral to Alnwick, being located outside settlement boundary. An application was refused for erection of 1 dwelling on part of site, with the subsequent appeal dismissed (15/02778/FUL). Brownfield element (0.48ha) - indicative yield of around 5 dwellings can be calculated based on methodological approach, although likely to represent the maximum appropriate. For indicative purposes in the BF Register, the original SHLAA site (ref 0018) is split to reflect brownfield and greenfield elements - total area of 1.27ha. Any proposal for development should reflect setting. Recently confirmed that the site is available for redevelopment, with intention to propose a scheme of 5 dwellings in due course. Currently considered developable in the medium-term (6 to 10 years). | 2017-12-17 | 2020-12-17 | ||||||

Currently occupied for caravan storage but it has been suggested in the past that the land is capable of supporting a residential development. This would be of a limited size due to the physical nature of the land parcel. However, the site is largely outwith the settlement boundary identified in the draft neighbourhood plan, with the remainder proposed for allocation for community uses. There has been no recent contact from the landowner and no indication that the current use of the site will be changed. No future delivery is forecast as there is no evidence of future availability or achievability. No longer considered developable/developable and future housing delivery is discounted in the SHLAA. | 2016-06-30 | 2023-12-17 | 2023-12-18 | ||||||

A handful of small buildings remain but the rest is hardstanding following earlier clearance. The buildings have latterly been used as a tearoom and holiday chalets. Within settlement limit and considered to represent an appropriate location for small-scale residential scheme. Earlier applications related to tourism uses, including a proposal for a single dwelling for a site manager that was refused. An outline consent was originally approved (14/04120/OUT). This has later been followed by a reserved matters for development of 6 homes following clearance (18/01976/REM). Development of 6 dwellings completed in 2021/22. | 2016-06-30 | 2021-12-17 | 2022-12-09 | |||

Rural location but opportunity for potential redevelopment of a limited part of the large site. The reduced yield indicated recognises potential suitability for small scale development of around 10 units. The site has been the subject to other small-scale projects on discreet parts of the site, identified on separate SHLAA sub-parcels as small sites (0115a, 0115b). This includes renovation of the listed station building to form a single dwelling and redevelopment of the former engine shed to create a further dwelling (11/00726/FUL). Another application was permitted for conversion of the goods shed to a dwelling (14/02689/FUL). Further opportunity exists on remaining brownfield land, likely to be through new-build development. Recently confirmed (EiP 2020) that the site remains available, with a redevelopment scheme to be considered in due course. Currently considered developable later in the plan period at present. | 2018-12-31 | 2024-11-19 | ||||||

Offers potential opportunity for conversion and new-build on site. The site has a complex planning history. Original planning permission was secured for a total of 19 units (16/03770/FUL). The proposal involved a complex range of works, including partial demolition of various buildings and modern extensions and the refurbishment, alteration and conversion of remaining buildings, including Allerburn House and The Lodge. This will create 10 dwellings with new-build development providing a further 10 homes. A revised application for 17 units (3 conversions and 14 new-build) was refused in April 2018. However, a variation application on the original approved scheme was then granted in September 2018. This amended the layout and reduced the overall yield to 18 units. An application for another scheme for part of the site was then made - conversion of Allerburn House to 3 dwellings, with 6 new-build units - but this was also refused (November 2018). The initial scheme (16/03770/FUL) was implemented with 1 home completed before work paused. In 2018 another change to the development was proposed. Thos involved the refurbishment of the Lodge, conversion of Allerburn House into 3 apartments, demolition of ad hoc extensions to Allerburn House and the erection of 14 new build units. This application was approved on appeal December 2018. A further change to this permitted design was approved in October 2022, reducing the overall yield to 17 units. Development of 6 dwellings completed in 2024/25. | 2016-06-30 | 2025-12-11 | 2025-12-17 | ||

Permission in place for construction of 15 residential dwellings and associated landscaping and infrastructure (A/2010/0450). This has been implemented by the construction of an access road. The brownfield element (0.32ha) represents around two-thirds of site - a yield of around 5 dwellings can be calculated based on methodological approach. For indicative purposes in the BF Register, the original SHLAA site (ref 0280) is split to reflect brownfield and greenfield elements - total area of 0.96ha. Despite there being no substantive progress to date on the residential aspect of the development, the permission has been implemented through initial site works, so it will not lapse. Developer confirms the project is deliverable and final completion is currently forecast within the next five years. NB - a related proposal for a 47-room hotel immediately adjacent was permitted in April 2021 (20/01238/FUL). Involves a mix of conversion of a listed building and a new-build extension. This project complements the original residential scheme and the masterplan for the hotel includes these 15 dwellings. | 2017-12-17 | 2024-12-11 | |||

This closed in 2016 and the site is now surplus to requirements. An application for redevelopment for a mix of conversion, part demolition and redevelopment of the site was permitted in February 2021 (19/00500/FUL). The concept was for a retirement village, providing a range of different housing types and facilities. The retained Grade II listed former school buildings to the north of the site will be converted into 27 apartments. A large area of open space will buffer this from the new-build units constructed on the southern part of the former playing fields, comprising a block of 49 elderly living flats and 22 dwellings. Brownfield element (0.80ha) only relates to the northern part of the site (conversion). For indicative purposes in the BF Register, the original SHLAA site (ref 0282) is split to reflect brownfield and greenfield elements - total area of 4.79ha. However, following the grant of planning approval, no progress was made on-site, and the permission lapsed due to non-implementation in early 2025. In October 2024, a new application for a revised scheme was submitted for consideration (24/03628/FUL). This proposes demolition and redevelopment of the modern extensions and outbuildings to the main school building and conversion to 13 residential apartments, along with 46 new-build residential dwellings. Again, a large area of open space is proposed for retention in the centre of the site. If this revised scheme is permitted, then the yield will be changed accordingly. As the site does not benefit from an extant planning permission, it is not considered deliverable and is forecast for delivery in the 6-10 year period. If permitted, deliverability will be reassessed. The site is also allocated in the Alnwick and Denwick Neighbourhood Plan for a mix of uses. | 2017-12-17 | 2024-11-19 | |||

After the original use ceased, the building continued as cinema, and then a bingo hall until closure in 1986. It has been vacant unoccupied for a number of years. Situated behind the main row of buildings in Market Street, access is a key constraint to overcome to ensure that development is viable. Yield reflects urban infill opportunity at relatively high density, most likely provided through conversion to apartments. A scheme will have to be reflective of and sensitive to the listed building and surrounding heritage assets. Previous planning permission lapsed for change of use from a cinema to public house (13/02501/FUL). A much earlier permission for a mixed-use scheme, including residential development, similarly lapsed (A/90/A/210). Any future proposals for residential development proposals are likely to incorporate two adjacent parcels of land within the same ownership (0285, 0286). Confirmed by the landowner that the site is available for redevelopment, and work is currently underway to work up a comprehensive project for revitalising the whole area. Currently considered developable in the medium- to longer-term. | 2016-06-30 | 2024-11-19 | ||||||

Light industrial uses have been in situ in recent times, including a commercial garage and premises for a builders merchants. These would need clearance and any necessary remediation prior to redevelopment. Yield outlined reflective of relatively high density development within urban environment, with a flatted scheme likely to be appropriate. Allocated for housing in the Alnwick and Denwick Neighbourhood Plan (Site H2-9). Any future proposals for residential development proposals are likely to incorporate two adjacent parcels of land within the same ownership (0285, 0286). Confirmed by the landowner that the site is available, and work is currently underway to work up a comprehensive project for revitalising the whole area.

Comprises two parcels of land, the footprint of the buildings an hardstanding (0382) and adjacent green space (8081). The redundant school buildings were demolished in 2010 following closure. A permission for construction of 29 dwellings was granted in 2009 (A/2009/0034). This initial permission related only to the brownfield land (0382). This was not progressed and a revised scheme for 24 dwellings was later approved (16/02211/FUL). This incorporates both parcels (0382, 8081). Over half of the total site is brownfield land (0.49ha), with an indicative brownfield yield of around 17 dwellings calculated based on methodological approach - total area of 3.26 ha.

There is a small element of brownfield land that previously provided additional parking space for the adjacent car sales business. However, this neighbouring garage has now closed and the site has been cleared. An outline permission for 60 units was initially permitted in 2015 (13/03894/OUT). A reserved matters application for 65 dwellings was subsequently approved in October 2022 (18/00751/REM). A Certificate of Lawful Development Existing was approved in March 2025, confirming that dwelling plot-8 can lawfully be commenced. This confirms that site works have commenced, and the permission will not lapse. Brownfield element (0.27 ha) - indicative yield of around 8 dwellings can be calculated based on methodological approach. For indicative purposes in the BF Register, the original SHLAA site (ref 0429) is split to reflect brownfield and greenfield elements - total area of 3.26 ha.

Now vacant and offering a good opportunity for redevelopment, in a potentially attractive location for new homes. The identified yield is considered appropriate for urban location. Demolition of the former industrial complex was undertaken following earlier consent (04/B/0368). A permission for building of 30 units was then secured in 2005 (N/04/B/0337). This was implemented through the demolition of a former mill building, the clearance of associated industrial buildings and infrastructure, and construction of an access road. Thereafter, progress stalled. Deliverability in the short-term has been questioned and there has been no recent indication that development is likely to recommence. The site is currently being marketed for sale - which highlights the extant planning permission - but it is clear that no progress will be made until the site is sold. 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. | 2016-06-30 | 2024-12-17 | ||||

Previous proposal for clearance and construction of 5 dwellings was approved but lapsed without commencement (N/07/B/0342). This yield was considered to maximise the potential of the site. No recently indication of availability. Following recent reappraisal, now only considered suitable for a development of a lower yield.

Relatively high density infill development preferred given urban location, maybe through a flatted scheme. Earlier proposal for residential development of 5 three-storey town houses was not implemented and lapsed, despite being renewed (N/07/B/0529, N/10/B/0237). It is understood the building has been sold since this proposal, so the current availability of the site is uncertain.

Demolition of the buildings and outbuildings would be required prior to progression. Outline permission for clearance and construction of 14 dwellings originally granted in 1992 but, despite being renewed on two further occasions, this lapsed without any progress being made progress (N/92/B/0651/P, N/96/B/0206/P, N/99/B/0268).

A mixed-use development of the site, for 136 homes, retail floorspace and restaurant/cafe units, was permitted in 2014 after being under consideration for a number of years (N/09/B/0317). Initial site works commenced following approval. A revised application for construction of 136 homes, alongside a parallel application for demolition of remaining buildings, was submitted in 2012 (12/00512/FUL, 12/00515/CON).

An application for conversion to a residential care home, was refused in 1996 (N/93/B/0335/P). This was followed by another refusal for conversion to 7 dwellings (N/95/B/0687/P). Permission was then granted in 2001 for alteration and conversion of the hotel to create 7 dwellings, but this lapsed without being delivered (N/01/B/0206). Some time afterwards, an application for demolition of vacant hotel and construction of 12 homes was refused (14/03794/FUL). The subsequent appeal against refusal was dismissed in 2016. A revised scheme for demolition of an existing dwelling and construction of 2 semi-detached bungalows and then part demolition, conversion and extension of the hotel to 8 flats was then permitted in 2017 (17/02068/FUL). Works commenced on this project before a subsequent application to amend the scheme was approved in October 2019 (19/01481/FUL). This alteration added 2 further flats through conversion, increasing overall yield to 11 dwellings. The first 4 flats were completed in 2020/21, with the remaining apartments and 1 of the bungalows now also completed. Work on the final bungalow is yet to be started and it is understood that it is not intended to progress with building of this final unit at present. The delivery of this final dwelling is therefore discounted. 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.

The building formerly hosted a learning facility but lay derelict for a number of years following closure. Conversion of the existing building is considered the most appropriate method of bringing the site back into use. It had been understood that the site was not available for residential conversion, with community uses being preferred, but this position has recently changed. An application for conversion of the building to create 9 flats, with construction of 1 further new-build house and garage block to rear, was submitted and approved in July 2023 (21/02292/FUL). Subsequently, a revised application for 7 units, from the conversion of the existing building to 5 dwellings and construction of two new-build properties to the rear was permitted in November 2025 (24/03631/FUL). Either scheme could be delivered. Whilst yet to commence, it is considered that the overall scheme of between 7 and 10 units is deliverable within the next five years. | 2016-06-30 | 2025-12-16 | |||

Currently in use and occupied, but it has been highlighted as having potential for future redevelopment. The release of the land will be dependent on the operational needs of Go North East, and necessity to secure a site for relocation. Therefore, it is not available for immediate redevelopment. Demolition of the depot and associated buildings will be required. A requirement to undertake remediation is also likely given the current use. There is opportunity to link with adjacent land as part of a wider redevelopment scheme (2040, 2628, 9136). There may be chance for a scheme at increased density given the location in the built-up. It is considered to have potential in the longer-term, but residential development is forecast later in the plan period. The site is now allocated for residential development in the Northumberland Local Plan (2022) and also in the Hexham Neighbourhood Plan (2021). | 2017-12-17 | 2022-12-12 | |||||||

Located immediately adjacent to A68 meaning that safe access will need to be careful considered. Whilst at the edge of settlement a small-scale development is considered appropriate for the setting. Demolition, clearance and remediation will be necessary if a scheme for new housing was to progress. Redevelopment was proposed by the landowner, and permission for development of 8 dwellings was secured a number of years ago, but this approval lapsed without a start being made (T/20070552). Later, the site was initially identified as a potential allocation in the draft Northumberland Local Plan (submitted May 2019), but was later dropped after the landowner confirmed that the site is no longer available for a housing scheme. No longer considered developable/developable and future housing delivery is discounted in the SHLAA. | 2016-06-30 | 2022-12-12 | 2020-11-19 | ||||

There is also some further undeveloped land to the rear. Has been highlighted as potentially offering an opportunity for redevelopment but this would be dependent of relocation of the existing business to new premises. Located at the edge of the settlement but there is potential to complement surrounding development, as land to both the east and west has recently been developed for residential use. However, as there is an existing use/business in situ, and because there has been no indication in many years that there is an intention to relocated and/or redevelop the site, there is no evidence to suggest this has potential to provide new housing.

A number of existing buildings remain in situ and with the remainder vacant. The northern part of the site consists of light industrial units and associated land, that have latterly been occupied by a number of car repair workshops, storage buildings and a haulage depot. Buildings are likely to require clearance before any substantive residential development can take place. Potential need for remediation given past use. There are also two existing dwellings to the south of the site. The identified yield of around 35 dwellings reflects development at an appropriate density given setting. There is a very complex planning history, with a number of scheme previously proposed for redevelopment, as a whole or in part. The initial application for 65 dwellings was refused in 2007 (T/20061470). Two parallel proposals for alternative schemes were then submitted. Firstly, an application for demolition of 2 existing dwellings and a number of light industrial buildings and construction of a 57 flat sheltered housing complex and a further 9 detached homes was permitted in 2008 (T/20080131). This proposal would have resulted in 64 net additional homes on completion. Another application for a similar scheme, but consisting of 55 flats and 9 dwellings and associated facilities, was permitted at a similar time and later renewed (T/20070559, T/20100529), Ultimately, both of the approved schemes lapsed due to non-implementation. In addition, there have also been a number of applications for small-scale residential schemes to the south of the site, including permissions enabling construction of the 2 existing dwellings, and other schemes that were never implemented. The availability of the site was confirmed relatively recently and residential development is forecast later in the plan period (11 to 15 years). The indicative yield is a reduction on previous proposals. This recognises the likelihood of a more mainstream housing development rather than a sheltered care scheme. The site is also allocated for residential development in the Northumberland Local Plan (2022) | 2016-06-30 | 2025-12-16 | |||||

Demolition of these buildings and redevelopment as an infill site has been proposed for a number of years. An initial outline permission was secured for clearance and construction of 6 homes in 2007following clearance, but lapsed despite extension of the initial consent (T/20070154, T/20100032). More recently, a revised application for demolition and construction of 7 dwellings was permitted in 2020 (19/0229//FUL). It is understood that a developer had been secured to deliver the scheme. Despite this, once again the permission lapsed due to non-implementation. It is understood that the landowner is still looking to progress development and a revised proposal will be submitted in due course. Delivery is currently forecast for the medium-term (6 to 10 years). The site is also allocated for residential development in the Northumberland Local Plan (2022). | 2016-06-30 | 2025-12-16 | |||

A single three-storey building and a historic ropery now remain in situ. The old ropery offers opportunity for conversion. The site has been identified as a key redevelopment opportunity in the heart of Hexham. There will be opportunity for a higher density development in this location, probably an apartment scheme. Proposals for mixed-use redevelopment have been made on a number of occasions over the years, both in part and when incorporated within a wider scheme with adjacent land (2258, 2497). This planning history goes back over a long period. Permission for demolition of the remaining building and construction of 17 apartments and a retail unit, was initially secured for this parcel in 2006 (T/20061115). A revised application for a complex mixed-use scheme of residential development, and retail, commercial and office floorspace was permitted in 2015 (15/02794/FUL). A total of 36 dwellings were proposed, comprising of 5 houses and 31 apartments in three blocks. The proposal included part demolition, reconstruction, alteration and conversion of the existing building. Whilst this latter permission lapsed due to non-commencement, it has recently been confirmed that the 2006 application remains live, because a material start had been made on works within the necessary timeframe. It has been confirmed that the site remains available and that there is still an intention to deliver the redevelopment of the site. The permitted scheme for 17 dwellings is considered deliverable in the next five years. However, it is understood that a revised scheme may be proposed in future, a redevelopment that may be in combination with adjacent land (2258, 2497). | 2016-06-30 | 2025-12-16 | |||

The site has stood vacant for some time and now comprises of overgrown hardstanding. Offers a chance for extensive redevelopment at the heart of the settlement. There is a long running planning history to the site. An outline permission was approved in 2005 (T/20050571). Reserved matters consent was then permitted in 2008 for 65 units, but this lapsed without being taken forward (T/20071304). The site offers an excellent position for a potential residential development given the central location in Bellingham, perhaps incorporating some flatted development into the overall mix at an increased density. The site has been identified for providing affordable homes and/or specialist housing accommodation, necessary in this rural location. Allocated for residential development in the Northumberland Local Plan (adopted March 2022). More recently, an application for construction of 63 units was permitted in 2022 (21/03415/FUL). The scheme comprises of 43 houses and 20 apartments. The latter are C2 use class, but are self-contained units that count towards the housing supply. Site works have now commenced.

A parallel permission for redevelopment with 5 new terraced homes was granted in 2007 but never progressed and lapsed (T/20070337). Despite this, the opportunity for redevelopment still remains in what is an established residential area. Indicative yield reflective of surrounding terraced development. Ground conditions and stability will be a key consideration of any proposed scheme given the history of the land.
