Policy BUX1: Land east of Lion Road, Buxton

6.15

This site to the east of Lion Road was allocated in the 2016 Broadland Local Plan but was not yet developed at the base date of this plan.  The principle of development on the site has already been accepted and it is expected that development will take place within the time-period of this local plan up to 2038.  The site is considered in the calculation of the housing requirement, providing at least 20 homes, but more may be accommodated, subject to an acceptable design and layout being achieved.  Outline permission (20150082) was granted in October 2016 but there has been no reserved matters application.

Policy BUX1

Land east of Lion Road, Buxton (approx. 0.7ha) is allocated for residential development. This will accommodate approximately 20 homes.

The development will be expected to address the following specific matters:

  1. Vehicular and pedestrian access from Lion Road poses significant difficulties, so an alternative may be necessary.
  2. Off-site requirements may include footway and cycleway improvements, including a footpath from the site to Crown Road.
