There is a restrictive covenant in place which would require the assent of Wolverhampton City Council should the land be used for purposes other than in connection with a golf course. The current use as a greenkeepers compound would need to be relocated as part of a wider redevelopment to relocate the golf club clubhouse.
No
The relocation of the greenkeepers compiound would take place as part of a wider relocation of the golf club clubhouse to a new site off Oxley Moor Road.
None
Not to our knowledge.
The land could only be developed as a second phase of development should the clubhouse first be relocated. At least 1 year from the start of the first phase. Prior approval from the members of the golf club would also be required to go ahead with the relocation project.
This is part of interest in the potential wider redevelopment and relocation of the existing clubhouse.

No
The site has been substantially degarded by its present use and in isolation would be considered of industrial character. As it is already on the fringe of the green belt the Club consideres that the opportunity should be taken to remove its current green belt designation as part of the call for sites process, regardless of whether or not it is included in the in the final list of sites.

To be confirmed
The site provides an opportunity to accommodate housing need in a suitable location, well related to transport infrastructure and amenities. The site also includes substantial sport facilities and the owner understands that a comprehensive approach would be required to both deliver housing in accordance with local needs, and to ensure that any impact on sports facilities is mitigated. These proposals are being considered at present.

The land which is the subject of this response to the Call for Sites is in a single ownership can be developed in its own right to round off existing development and provide Green Belt boundaries which will endure - see plans 19-1778/L, 01 attached. However it could also form part of a strategic land release south of Daw End on land bounded by A461 Lichfield Road, King George Crescent, Daw End Branch Canal and railway line to deliver growth by way of a new Regeneration Corridor which would: * provide a significant number of much needed new market & affordable homes * support the use & development of local services * enable the rationalisation & enhancement of playing fields & other formal & informal recreational provision * facilitate improvement to schools & community facilities * enhance local ecology & biodiversity Such a development strategy would not prejudice the character or function of the wider Green Belt as a substantial east-west corridor of open land would be retained, and would establish clear & defensible boundaries using physical features that are readily recognisable and likely to be permanent in line with national planning policy.

Dear Sirs, I have been told that number 74 Cinder Road Lower Gornal is in Green Belt and that I am therefore not allowed to develop the quarter of an acre site which at present is occupied by one 65 year old bungalow. I have a plan to erect 3 detached houses on this site which would clearly be far superior in terms of energy efficiency, warmth, and general aesthetic appeal and would improve the visual appeal of the locality. The bungalow has, some time in the past been rezoned from residential to green belt for no obvious reason since 1. It sits in a highly residential road and is surrounded by housing on both sides of the Cinder Road with bungalows to the right of it leading up to Brookbank Road and another identical bungalow to the left of it which is also home to an industrial unit which has been there for about 60 years. 2, Further down the road heading towards Tansey Green there is massive housing estate on industrial land formerly owned by LCP, and directly opposite that are the former brickworks sites of Ibstock and Himley Brick which have recently been given clearance for yet another huge housing estate.These estates are no more than 200 metres away from 74 Cinder Road and form the horizon for the bungalow when looking towards the Tansey Green area. Continuing on further down Stallings Lane to Wall Heath is an area which is densely populated with both residential and business properties. 3. Behind number 74 there is a whole estate of houses built in the 1960's which is bordered by Guys lane and Brookbank Road. 4. Further up Cinder Road going towards the Himley Road there is a Council Housing Estate and dense housing both sides of the road. 5. Numbers 74 and 76 Cinder Road have been designated green belt but numbers 72, 70, 68 and so on are residential. I wish to register my objections to this rather absurd zoning of my bungalow since it is quite clearly not in an area of outstanding natural beauty and is clearly sited in a very normal residential area with housing and industrial units next door and a rifle range next to number 76 after which there is a old railway track and next to that another industrial unit. How on earth can this be considered to be checking urban sprawl and maintaining an area where agriculture, forestry and outdoor leisure can be expected to prevail.is beyond me when this is just not a sustainable proposition. The Government's stated aims with regard to green belt are 1. To check the unrestricted sprawl of large built-up areas - it is a little late for this with regard to number 74 - it's surrounded by large sprawls of housing and industrial development 2. To prevent neighbouring towns from merging into one another - again bit late for this as well since with the new developments on the LCP site and the brickworks, Gornal is now joined up with Wall Heath which in turn is joined up with Kingswinford. 3. To assist in safeguarding the countryside from encroachment - what countryside? This is a densely populated area - it's not some idyllic little backwater in the Cotswolds - does the Council even know what the place is like? 4 .To preserve the setting and special character of historic towns - this is not an historic town with any sort of special character - it is predominantly a cheap housing area where the average price for a house is £140k (Zoopla) 5. To assist in urban regeneration, by encouraging the recycling of derelict and other urban land.- This is not derelict land because there is an existing house on it so the aim here should be to improve the quality of the housing on the site - you can' recycle derelict land if it's not derelict Once an area of land has been defined as green belt, the stated opportunities and benefits include: Providing opportunities for access to the open countryside for the urban population -nobody is going to have access to this piece of land because there is a property already on it Providing opportunities for outdoor sport and outdoor recreation near urban areas - again it is not a recreation area and never will be The retention of attractive landscapes and the enhancement of landscapes, near to where people live - this is not an attractive landscape since there is an industrial unit right bang next door which extends over an area of roughly 2/3 of an acre Improvement of damaged and derelict land around towns - again it is not derelict - it has a house on it The securing of nature conservation interests - there is no conservation involved here - it is a bungalow with a lawned garden which is for the enjoyment of the occupants only The retention of land in agricultural, forestry and related uses.- Since it has never been agricultural or forestry then there is nothing to retain. I feel very strongly about this matter and feel that my case is a robust one since by no logical measure can this plot of land be considered to be green belt and I fully intend to pursue the issue with doggedness and tenacity. What I would like from the Council is A reasoned case as to why this land is considered so valuable that it is in need of protection when to the casual observer (the man on the Clapham omnibus) it is situated in the midst of considerable residential and industrial development including two brand new housing estates only minutes up the road. I then need to know from you what procedure I need to follow in order to prosecute this matter to the absolute limit, leaving no stone unturned. Since my case is compelling I wish to know who to approach in order to ensure that the matter is reviewed urgently and that it is not kicked into the long grass. And finally,, without prejudice to the aforementioned points 1 to 3, I wish to ensure that my request for re-zoning is included on the next planning review and would appreciate your confirmation of same. I trust that you will give this matter your urgent and detailed consideration and will refer the matter to the relevant Council officials whether employees or elected councillors. Yours faithfully,

A number of sites adjacent and in the near locality have also been proposed as residential development sites that are further incursions in to the Green Belt and leave the subject site isolated. Site proposal (site ref. 114) wraps this site on its eastern , southern and western boundaries. The subject site is immediately on the boundary of the suburban area and as an urban extension should be first, or part of the first land to be released and come forward for residential dvelopment (on a sequential basis of greenfield land releases in its locality).
