Proposed residential development.
The proposed site would provide a residential site with connectivity with the approved housing development to the south (off Hadens Way) and the approved housing development to the north (off of Over Road) and allow pedestrians to easier access the facilities within the village of Willingham, whilst providing a broad mix of housing.
The site could accommodate a minimum of 10 dwellings but would be discussed with SCDC to ensure that the density reflects the location but could accommodate up to 20 dwellings.

There is a vehicular access from 22 Station Road (one of the landowners) and there is a retained right of way alongside 20 Station Road. An additional access would be required to access this site and it is expected that this would come from the north, via the approved residential development from Over Road.
According to the Environment Agency's flood maps for planning, part of the site is within flood zones 2 and 3 but that could be mitigated in the same way as the approved scheme as Aspinalls Yard to the north and the approved outline planning application north of this site for 26 dwellings off of Over Road. There is the opportunity to mitigate flood risk from surface water by the use of SUDS. No know contamination on the site. There is a badger set on the site, which is currently located in dense bramble and appropriate mitigation would be sought if development is approved.
There are overhead electricity lines nearby and the proposed approved development to the north would allow for key utilities to be provided to the site boundary including water supply, main sewerage, electricity, gas and broadband.
The site could be delivered for housing at the earliest opportunity
We believe that the site has a high market attractiveness as the site is wedged between two approved housing developments and provides a natural pedestrian access potential to connect the scheme to the south with the centre of Willingham

The site could provide for housing for local resident and an attractive gateway to the built environment of the village. If it were deemed appropriate it could be developed out at the same time of the adjacent development thus causing the minimum disruption for Linton residents. There is also benefits in considering this development at this time in terms of provisions of footpaths into the village centre and amenities and to the East to the main transport links.

The site has access to all key utilities through an agreement with the developers of the adjacent site. The arrangement with the developers of the adjacent site has made allowances for the increase in capacity that would be required for this potential development. There are national grid electricity poles running down the eastern boundary of this site.
The site is part of a larger land parcel which has been granted permission for residential development. Our interest in this field whilst it is accessible to the public highway it does not represent a viable arable field since it would now be too small for modern agricultural operations.
Two similar sites have recently been sold in linton with permission for residential development. Croudace are about to start developing the rest of the site, there is no clearly defined boundary between the two sites

The site would be changed to residential housing, with a total of 45 units. The site would also include an office building of 2,198 sq ft at the entrance to the site for upto 20 people. This may be suitable for Welding Alloys existing administrative personnel.
The development will provide access to public open green spaces and a children's play area. The additional population will help sustain the local pubs and restaurants in the village.

Vehicular access into the site exists at present (The Way) and this adequately serves the existing industrial site. Following a request from the Local Highway Authority (Cambridgeshire County Council) it is proposed to modify the existing access slightly in order to provide an enhancement to visibility for users. A Transport Statement submitted to the Council demonstrate that the development of up to 45 residential units and office space can be safely accommodated by the proposed access and that it should not result in a detrimental impact on the existing operation of the highway network in this location.
A detailed Flood Risk Assessment (which includes the results of detailed hydraulic modelling of the nearby watercourse) supports the planning application and demonstrates that the proposed development will not be at significant risk of flooding and that neither will it significantly increase the risk of flooding elsewhere.
The site is supplied with all the key utilities of mains water, mains sewerage, electricity and broadband internet. There is no mains gas in the village of Fowlmere.
The personnel currently employed on the site are able to move to another office location at short notice.

A mixture of market and affordable housing, including bungalows which have been identified as a priority in the village plan process. The option also exists for using the site for business (B1 and B1b) which a site opposite has recently had a change of use for.
It would meet specific local housing needs as identified in the Village Plan process.
This site could accommodate up to 30 new dwellings according to recent guidelines. A lower density could also be achieved depending on local infrastructure plans. For business use, the 1.1 hectare site could accommodate office space of up to 2500 square metres. The site opposite has similar office spaces and intends to employ up to 70 people (Planning reference: S/4569/17/FL).

Unused pasture

The land would allow the building of between approximately 5 to 20 properties. The land is surrounded on two sides by existing housing and could be used to provide much needed housing without unduly changing the character of the village. The houses could include low cost and key worker housing with the possibility of self-building as well.
The villages of Great and Little Eversden are close to Cambridge and also the road and rail network to other centres of work including London. The villages currently have very few facilities and it has been suggested if the villages were a little bigger then it would be easier to justify getting additional facilities including bus services. This particular piece of land would blend into the current village envelope and allow the possibility to allow low cost house or residencies for key workers. It would also be an ideal opportunity for self-build. Given the space, it would be possible to blend the housing with some open space to retain it's rural character.
The land lends itself to a number of profiles from 5 to 10 houses with plenty of green communal or public space to a more dense population of 20 houses with a mix of inhabitants.

There is access directly from Lowfields onto the land. There are also possibilities (subject to other landowners permission) to add further access points, including another paddock adjoining this field that is already within the current village envelope.
Electricity lines supported via poles pass over the property, mains drainage and water is also available from Lowfields.
The land is currently unused and has been for the last 15 years or so, being kept to grass.
We have received interest from two development organisations.

The site could deliver market housing to meet identified need and 40% semi-sheltered affordable housing with different (non-market) housing tenures to create a mixed and balanced community. The site is sustainable and would link to existing highways and public rights of way. There are no significant adverse impacts in developing this site. Village has infrastructure required to support housing delivery. The site would be close to proposed transit/rail systems all associated with the east-west rail link. Site is within walking/cycling distance of employment opportunities and the centre of the village.
The development is within walking and cycling distance of the village centre and will provide significant economic support for the vitality and viability for the village of Meldreth. The location of the site allows for a choice of modes of transport to access local facilities and services in Cambridge and beyond including London via existing rail links and the A10 trunkroad.
Residential development of 100 units with associated open space and landscaping and new infrastructure landscaping. Upgrade existing PROW to expand circular walk/bridleway.

Full access is available to site with connection rights to services. A revised site location plan is provided with this response, to include the existing site access off Fenny Lane at the eastern boundary of the site that would provide a secondary access for the promoted development. As set out above, the existing site access from Fenny Lane at the eastern boundary is included within the proposed development to provide a secondary means of access. The proposed main access for the proposed development would be adjacent to No.12 Fenny Lane. It is agreed that the existing footways along Fenny Lane should be upgraded as part of the proposed development to provide suitable pedestrian routes to the services and facilities within the village. An assessment of the access arrangements will need to be undertaken to demonstrate that a safe and suitable access can be created to serve the promoted development.

A very small part of the site is subject to flood risk, and this is associated with the watercourse (Whaddon Brook) located on the western boundary of the site. The watercourse would be retained and enhanced as part of the promoted development. A drainage strategy would be delivered as part of the promoted development to manage flood risk and surface water drainage. It is requested that the score for flood risk is changed to ‘amber’ It is agreed that the promoted development will need to protect the character of the village. The existing trees and hedgerows at the site boundaries would be retained and enhanced as part of the promoted development. The promoted development would include landscape screening at the northern boundary to mitigate the impact on landscape character as recommended in the assessment.
