Residential development, primary school, care home, and associated open space and landscaping
Development of the site would assist in supporting the existing services and facilities in Bar Hill. Furthermore, the provision of a primary school and care home would assist in meeting the current respective education and elderly accommodation shortfalls in the locality.
Residential development of up to 430 dwellings and a 200-bed care home. This is based on a density of 40dph, the allocation of 2 hectares for the care home, 1 hectare for the primary school, and the remaining land for open space and landscaping.

Access is currently provided off High Street, Dry Drayton, but would need to be upgraded to an adoptable standard. Further access points could be achieved off Crafts Way/Saxon Way, Bar Hill, subject to successful negotiations held with the landowners who own the adjoining land between the highway and the proposed development site.
The site slopes down from approximately 40 metres above sea level in the south-east to approximately 25 metres in the north-west. Any proposed layout will therefore be sympathetic to the site's contours, in order to reduce any amenity issues e.g. overlooking. Landscape buffering will also assist in reducing the visual impact in terms of long views into and out of the site.
The north-west portion of the site is located in Flood Zones 2 and 3. This flood zone, however, is largely concentrated along an existing drainage channel which bounds the site along its western border. Should negotiations with the adjacent landowner prove successful and thus the site be developed, it is anticipated that extensive upgrades to the existing drainage system would be made, therefore resulting in the risk of flooding on-site being reduced. Consequently, this may culminate in the downgrading of the on-site flood zone to levels 2 or 1. There is no known contamination on the site. Any future planning application would be accompanied by a Phase 1 Contamination Assessment, which would assess the likelihood of contamination and recommend mitigation measures (if necessary). It is unknown as to whether protected species are present on-site. Any future planning application would be accompanied by a Phase 1 Ecology Assessment, which would asses the likelihood of protected species being present on-site. Should there be a likelihood of protected species on-site, then further surveys would be undertaken and mitigation measures would be proposed e.g. the provision of bat/bird boxes. A Public Right of Way bounds the site to the west (REF: 66/1). In addition, considering the adjoining woodland between the site and the public highway, there is an opportunity to create a pedestrianised greenway and thus encourage future occupiers to access the surrounding countryside.
All services available to serve site. A 15 metre high telecommunications monopole is located in the south-east corner of the site.
The landowner is keen to develop the site and has received enquiries. However, the site is not available immediately as negotiations need to be held with the adjacent landowner in order to secure further points of access for the site.
Proximity to existing and regional transport links (upgrading of A14); available in the short term (on the basis of successful negotiations with adjacent landowner); and all constraints are considered to be minor and/or easily overcome.
Yes - the adjoining woodland between the site and the public highway in Bar Hill is under different ownership. Successful discussions with the adjoining landowner would enable additional access points to be created off Crafts Way/Saxon Way and thus bring significant benefits for the existing local community through the development of the site.

Existing access via Station Road
The site is previously developed and has no known physical constraints
The Site is located within the New Town and Glisson Road Common Conservation Area. None of the buildings within the Site are listed, however they are all identified as Buildings of Local Interest (51-53 Hills Road and the Station Mews are excluded from this list). In addition, they are identified as ‘Buildings of Positive Townscape Value’ in the New Town and Glisson Road Conservation Area Character Appraisal (2012), (51-53 Hills Road and the Station Mews are excluded from this list). As such, the existing buildings are considered to be “non designated heritage assets”. In light of the above, the landowners recognise that it is important to understand the relative merits of the existing buildings and land in the context of these designations and the relevant legislation and policy framework. The landownershave therefore instructed an Initial Significance Assessment to understand the historic interest of the existing properties and this is enclosed with my letter. The findings from the Initial Significance Assessment are that the site could accommodate some form of development within its heritage contexts.
The site is previously developed and has no known constraints
The landowner's intention is to investigate options for the site in the near future.
The CB1 development has created a recognisable and distinct CBD that has been missing previously and it has attracted a number of significant pre-lets, a sign of its desirability. Land on the north side of Station Road provides a further development opportunity to continue the successful transformation of this part of the city and provide additional capacity to support the further clustering around the Station or simply very well-located development opportunities. The site is within single ownership and capable of delivering a well-designed, high quality development that could make efficient use of a brownfield site, in a sustainable location, whilst also being able to respect the significance of the heritage assets. The site’s proximity to Cambridge railway station, links to the Chisholm trail and the transport interchange at the Station also enables opportunities to promote sustainable transport modes. The landowners are at an early stage in considering potential development options for the site but consider that a range of different uses could be accommodated on the site and look forward to working with the Council, stakeholders and local community to refine the proposals further.
The site is within one ownership and there are no covenants

Access is taken via Common Lane, although it will need to be upgraded to an adoptable standard
A very small portion (<0.01 hectares) of the site is located in Flood Zones 3 and 2. It is therefore likely that planting will be located in these locations to act as a natural flood defence. There is no known contamination on-site. Any future planning application would be accompanied by a Phase 1 Contamination Assessment, which would assess the likelihood of contamination and recommend mitigation measures (if necessary). It is unknown as to whether protected species are present on-site. Any future planning application would be accompanied by a Phase 1 Ecology Assessment, which would assess the likelihood of protected species on-site. Should there be a likelihood of protected species on-site, then further surveys would be undertaken and mitigation measures would be proposed e.g. the provision of bird/bat boxes.
The site is served by all of the above utilities, although upgrades may be required in order to facilitate the development.
The existing business use is set to cease operations on-site.
The site is brownfield and soon to be vacant, therefore representing a residential development opportunity which is available in the short term. All constraints on-site are considered to be minor and/or easily overcome.

Residential development of approximately 550-600 new dwellings and associated infrastructure, including new public open space, sustainable urban drainage, pedestrian links and play facilities.
The proposed development would provide a mix of housing types and tenures, including new affordable homes to meet local needs. It would offer new public open space and play facilities, which can be designed to link into the surrounding countryside and Green Infrastructure network. The development could also provide new links into the existing Public Right of Way network, enhancing the accessibility of the surrounding Green Belt. The proposed development would also provide financial contributions towards local social and community infrastructure.
A Concept Masterplan (attached) has been prepared to demonstrate how approximately 550-600 new dwellings can be accommodated on the site. This can include up to 40% affordable housing in line with evidence of local need

The site is relatively flat with no significant level changes to inhibit development
Details: Flood Risk and Drainage - The Site is located in Flood Zone 1. A drainage technical note has been prepared by M-EC which demonstrates that there are no overriding drainage constraints to residential development. The note also provides details of a preliminary drainage strategy which incorporates sustainable urban drainage principles. Contamination - There are no known contamination constraints. The risk is considered low due the previous use as arable agricultural land. Biodiversity - The ecological value of the site is considered to be low as it comprises an intensively farmed arable field. The main ecological features comprise hedgerows and trees along the field margins. These can be retained as part of any development proposals. Heritage - Impacts on the setting of the Grade II Birdline Manor to the north-east and Comberton St Marys Conservation Area and setting of the Grade 1 Listed church to the east will be assessed through a Heritage Assessment, with appropriate mitigation identified. The Concept Plan responds to the proximity of Birdline Manor and St Marys CA by setting back the proposed developable area to preserve the character of these areas. Please see attached drainage note, Constraints and Opportunities Plan and Concept Masterplan.

This site benefits from an existing allocation in the Cambridge Local Plan (2018) (Policy 21 - Site M44). This policy identifies the following principal land uses for the site: • B1 (a) and B1 (b) employment • Residential Use • A mix of uses in classes A1, A2, A3, A4 and A5 Having regard to the potential land uses identified under Policy 21 (Site M44) the Site Allocation provisions should recognise the key opportunities that exist in the redevelopment of this high profile site, located on the main route from the Railway Station and the developments along Station Road into the City Centre; a site that can deliver a development that embraces innovation, is dynamic and bold, creating the workplace of the future, whilst exploiting its highly accessible location. It is a site that has the potential to bring significant benefits to the local environment through the creation of new amenity space, public realm and enhancing public accessibility. Since the original grant of planning permission Cambridge has seen significant new development within the station area and along Station Road, including significant amounts of new residential. There is currently limited Grade A office space available in the core city centre market. The limited space that is being built, is already identified, or which could potentially come forward, is already attracting strong interest and there are few sites available to meet the need for this standard of space. Accordingly, the lack of Grade A office space in the city centre, the limited amount of space coming forward and the lack of available sites, due to the constraints of Cambridge’s core area,makes this site highly desirable for retention of its commercial land uses. The landowner considers the allocation of the site for continued commercial uses (Classes B1(a) and B1(b) and all Class A uses) given its brownfield status and city centre location represents the most appropriate uses in any future development. The site also has the potential to create opportunity for greater public accessibility through the activation of the ground floor of the building, the provision of high-quality public realm around the site, and through the provision of appropriate amenity space to serve future occupiers. Given the potential of the site to accommodate, as established in the extant permission, a significant amount of new development, the site should be identified as such. This is especially supported by its location within the city, that fact that the site is well served by public transport being within walking distance of Cambridge railway station. This offers the potential to optimise density whilst also maximising the development opportunity through the incorporation of innovative and high-quality design to create a redevelopment that will be eminently adaptable and which will relate positively to its location, the Conservation Area in which it sits, and to the adjoining listed features; including Cambridge University Botanic Garden. Future proofing the building should be a key component in any development. As part of the emerging Greater Cambridge Local Plan process, the landowner is keen to start engaging with officers at the Council, key stakeholders and the local community to bring forward the most appropriate option for the redevelopment of the site. As the site is currently in commercial employment uses, a scheme for promoting continued commercial uses should be considered a suitable redevelopment option for the site, particularly in view of the lack of Grade A commercial floorspace in this part of the city and the quantum of new residential units being provided in this part of the city since the grant of the now implemented planning permission. The new Greater Cambridge Local Plan therefore needs to be flexible to enable a response to changes in economic circumstances and of the importance of ensuring enough land of the right types is available in the right places and at the right time to support growth and Cambridge's commercial importance and vision at local, regional, national and international levels. Accordingly, if residential uses are to be included within the future allocation of the site in the new Greater Cambridge Local Plan then it is requested the following text is included: "with the potential for residential subject to current market conditions and demand".
This is an important site, in the heart of the City Centre Business District, and it provides one of the few remaining centrally located opportunities to provide new high quality office space. The site is situated close to the railway station and guided bus service, and is within 10 minutes’ walk from the historic City Centre. The site deserves, (and provides an opportunity to deliver) a world class scheme, to enhance the immediate neighbourhood, and provide much needed office accommodation which will help support the economic growth of the region. The redevelopment of the site allows for a number of opportunities to bring economic, social and environmental benefits to the local area, including: • making efficient use of commercial brownfield land in a highly sustainable location to deliver a range of commercial land uses particularly in the A use classes and in Classes B1(a) and B1(b); • providing high quality Class A office accommodation in a highly attractive and highly accessible location with close access to major public infrastructure through proximity to Cambridge railway station; • improving the public realm at an important gateway into the city centre; • creating a landmark building in a key location of the highest architectural quality designed to enhance the conservation area, improve the street scene along Hills Road; • the introduction of active ground floor frontages, creating potential links into the site and respecting the relationship to the neighbouring Cambridge University Botanic Gardens; • introducing new areas of landscaping and amenity space across/around the site; • improvements to the character and appearance of the New Town and Glisson Road Conservation Area through the removal of Francis House and Betjeman House (currently identified as 'Buildings which Detract' in the New Town and Glisson Road Conservation Area Townscape Analysis) and the replacement with high quality architecture and design; • achieving a development that will maximise the sites potential as a key site between the railway station and city core that will attract business and the public alike; • supporting the local economy by introducing new jobs and adding to the range of jobs available; and, • Deliver on the policies of the new Greater Cambridge Local Plan.
The landowner intends to engage with the Council through the pre-application process to establish the development potential for the site. At the current time the extent of floor area that the overall site might sustain has not been assessed but it is very likely that significantly more will be deliverable compared to that which has already been approved.

The site benefits from an extant permission (06/0552/FUL) which confirms there are no environmental constraints to delivery. There have been no material changes in site circumstances since the granting of the extant permission
The site benefits from an extant permission (06/0552/FUL) and is currently in commercial use. Existing connections to key utilitie already exist on site and can be used in any further redevelopment of the site.
The current owners intent is to investigate options for the site in the near future. The site would be developed in phases, with Phase 1 available from within 3-years, and Phase 2 in approximately 5 years time (from 2024).
The site is within a city centre location, within close proximity to Cambridge Railway Station and on a main gateway into the city centre and within an area that has already proven attractive as a location for new commercial space along Station Road; especially for offices. It would seem prudent to promote commercial land uses in this area given the precedence already established and its attractiveness to developers and occupiers alike. The site already benefits from having an existing and highly successful new office building at its northern end; Botanic House. Botanic House comprises the implemented part of the 2007 permission which underpins the existing allocation in the Local Plan and proposals promoting commercial land uses will not only deliver the public realm, landscaping and amenity space plus activated ground floor uses, already mentioned previously, but enable greater interaction between the site, and its land uses, with the adjoining Cambridge University Botanic Garden. Interaction that might not otherwise occur under the current designation. Overall, given the current position in respect to the supply of Grade A office space in the core city centre market, and the difficulties in identifying sites to meet future need, makes this area especially attractive in the market, particularly for commercial land uses. The extent of recent development in the area enhances this, together with the role and function that Cambridge has under wider Government growth plans.
The site is within one ownership and there are no covenants
