Land in other ownership must be acquired to develop the site

Access to the site to be taken from School Lane, this would be aligned to the north of properties to Sunset Close. Part of the land required to create the access is currently owned by Brewood and Coven Parish Council. Discussions have been held with the Parish Council, and with assistance from the South Staffordshire Council legal team, confirmation has been received in writing dated 14 August 2015 that the Parish council is willing to sell the land.

The site is approximately 0.3km from the s St Paul’s C of E First school and nursery, which is located on School Lane, and 0.6km from the village centre which includes local convenience stores, a post office and a public house. The site is within close proximity of industrial and employment sites including Four Ashes Industrial Estate, Wolverhampton Business Park, Hilton Main Industrial Estate and i54 Enterprise Zone. Bounded by the A449, Stafford is approximately 10.6 miles away and Wolverhampton 5.8 miles away. The A449 also provides access to the junction 2 of the M54, which is two miles from the site, and the A5 is within 2.3 miles of the site which provides access to the M6. The A449 provides a strong, defensible and definitive boundary for any revised Green Belt Boundary at this location. We are not aware of any constraints to the site which would prevent development such as restrictive covenants, public rights of way, flood risk, physical constraints including topography or trees or contamination affecting the site. The site is therefore available immediately.

The site is boarded by the village on three sides, with the hedge and house to the south providing a clear definitive boundary, where the land rises. Discussions have been held with Staffordshire County Council Highways department, and they have no objection to the access, from Moor Lane. Discussions have been held with Claverley Medical Practice, with regard to providing a medical centre on part of the site, as currently this is provided in an annex to a dwelling in the village. An Agricultural Land Classification report has been commissioned which confirms that the site is Grade 3A. We are not aware of any constraints to the site which would prevent development such as restrictive covenants, public rights of way, flood risk, physical constraints including topography or trees or contamination affecting the site. The site is therefore available immediately.

Rectangular in site this is a brownfield underutilised site located in the Green Belt. There are two substantial double height storey sheds; a large bungalow; and the remainder of the site is covered in hardstanding. The site is bounded to the north by the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal; to the east by a mature hedge and the Wolverhampton Casuals Football Club; to the south by Brinsford Lane; and the west by the A449. The site is approximately 0.6miles from Junction 2 of the M54 and is located within the triangle to the three Strategic Employment Sites in South Staffordshire namely i54; Hilton Cross; and the Royal Ordnance Factory (ROF) at Featherstone. The site is approximately 1.3 miles away from the shops on Brewood Road in Coven, and 2 miles from the shops on The Avenue in Featherstone. The site is presently used as a storage facility for HGVs, but the operator is retiring. As part of the evidence gathering exercise for the South Staffordshire Site Allocations Document, (SAD), the Employment Land Study identifies that there is an oversupply of 12.3 ha of employment land to meet South Staffordshire’s local employment need. However, in light of the findings of the Black Country and South Staffordshire Sub Regional High Quality Employment Land Study 2014/15, and whilst it is not for South Staffordshire to meet the Black County employment land shortfall, the Council has sought to allocate modest extensions to the designated Strategic Employment Sites in the SAD to help to meet these wider regional needs. The loss of this existing use (Class B8) is therefore not considered an obstacle is respect of considering alternative uses for this brownfield site.
