We do not support the residential-led mixed use allocation for the Nuffield Road Industrial Estate and Trinity Hall Farm Industrial Estate area unless Ridgeons store is able to relocate to a satisfactory alternative. The existing Ridgeons use is not compatible with a residential use, due to environmental constraints such as noise and air quality. Unless a viable relocation site is found, the vision and concept plan should be modified to enable Ridgeons to remain on site. Potential relocation to the north east corner of the site might be broadly supported. It is considered that the area would also constitute a suitable location for employment intensification.
