1.1 Purpose of the Development Framework
This Development Framework has a number of complementary purposes: • To analysis and appraise the site • To identify factors that are constraining operation of the hospital • To promote ambitions for broadening the scope of care and specialist facilities beyond those currently provided on-site • To present a development framework and overarching development brief that will provide a structure within which more development and operational proposals can be considered. • To acknowledge commitment to a collaborative approach between NHS Trust and promoters of Redhill Aerodrome, and the wider Local Plan processes.

This so-called “Nucleus” package
comprised standard plans for almost every conceivable
department of a District General Hospital. The standard plans were used to achieve space and therefore cost savings, and claimed energy efficiency and fire safety amongst other benefits.

This is an important historical protection of this will require a buffer to any new development feature of the site that could be enhanced by restoration of at least 15m. of hedgerow planting to create a strong linear landscape feature and a boundary between development parcels. These woodland areas are almost connected by existing mature hedgrerows around the southern periphery of the campus, and there are three fingers of hedgerow coming into the site, two from the east and one from the west. To the north of the campus, the golf area consists of a flat and open grassed and mown golf driving range north of which is a nine hole golf course with limited vegetation. The area is bounded to the north and east by mature hedgerows. To the north west, and outside the site boundary, there is a vestige of the formal parkland that forms the setting and approach of the listed main building of the former Royal Earlswood Asylum with the formal tree-lined approach as its centrepiece.

David Lock Associates 15 with Davies Landscape Architects, WSP, EAD Ecology, Savills East Surrey Hospital Development Framework Surrey & Sussex NHS Trust 3.2 The Hospital: Opportunities Our analysis of the site reveals considerable potential within and around the campus for future operational requirements to be met on land within the control of the hospital, while its landscape setting and ecological importance can be protected and enhanced, and circulation and parking rationalised. Part of this process will be the definition of defined and defensible boundaries to the Green Belt that reinforce the five purposes of Green Belt. Outside of the Perimeter Hospital Street: • Land to the east of the Campus, currently accommodating extensive at-grade car parking and grassed areas, has potential for new and self-contained healthcare facilities with appropriate servicing, parking and outdoor space. • Land to the north east of the campus, north of Canada Avenue and including the site of the golf driving range has potential for new and self-contained healthcare facilities with appropriate servicing, parking and outdoor space. • The land occupied by the main car park north of the campus and north of the main road approach could be used more intensively by stacking car parking into parking buildings alongside other uses such as further healthcare, key worker housing and commercial facilities of benefit to staff and visitors The Perimeter Hospital Street itself requires better definition and landscape character that improves used experience and access effectiveness, making it the centre of a network of accessible outdoor spaces and public footpaths. David Lock Associates 16 with Davies Landscape Architects, WSP, EAD Ecology, Savills East Surrey Hospital Development Framework Surrey & Sussex NHS Trust 4 THE BRIEF 4.1 Objectives 4.2 Timescales The hospital has six objectives in respect of the future This Framework represents a programme for the growth and development of its campus: development of the hospital to be realised within the Plan Period. The order of development and the timing of 1. To optimise the capacity of land within and adjoining the development will depend on a range of factors including the hospital campus to meet future development needs well demand for key services, changes in population demographic related to and well integrated with the existing hospital and availability of funding. 2. To secure a positive planning policy regime that supports It is expected that all future development projects will be the growth and development of the hospital and the measured against the objectives set out for the future of the services available to the local population hospital. 3. To remove the hospital campus and other land with development potential from the Green Belt and to enhance defined and defensible boundaries that support the five purposes of Green Belt 4. To ensure that staff have access to affordable homes in the local area 5. To improve the strategic accessibility of the hospital campus and to secure access resilience as an emergency Trauma Centre 6. To rationalise access, circulation and parking so that it is effective, efficient and a positive experience for users. David Lock Associates 17 with Davies Landscape Architects, WSP, EAD Ecology, Savills East Surrey Hospital Development Framework Surrey & Sussex NHS Trust 5 THE DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK CONCEPT The Development Framework concept for the site is 5.1 Layout encapsulated in a series of diagrams in the following sections. 5.1.1 The Existing Hospital Complex An indication of the development potential realised by The development strategy envisages no structural changes this Development Framework has been prepared and to the existing core of the developed area of the hospital. is shown overleaf. This is for illustrative purposes only Changes here are anticipated to be relatively small-scale and and does not indicate any commitment to incremental to add capacity to existing services and facilities buildings, development and layout as illustrated at this or to address functional inefficiencies in operation. stage. 5.1.2 Access The two access points into the site – the main access from the west from the A23 and Three Arch Road, and secondary access from the south and Mason’s Bridge Road will be retained. In the short term, the west entrance will remain as the main access point, in particular for bus services. In the event that a new Garden Community is developed to the east and south, including construction of a new Link Road to a new junction on the M23 motorway, the south access point may assume greater importance. As part of any Link Road design, reconfiguration of this access point should be considered for general traffic, for emergency services, for public transport, and for pedestrian and cycle access from any new Garden Community David Lock Associates 18 with Davies Landscape Architects, WSP, EAD Ecology, Savills !"#$%&'(()*%+,#-.$"/%% 0)1)/,-2)3$%4("2)5,(6% !"##$%&'&!"(($)&*+!&,#"(-& & & ./012&3456&7((451/-$(& 8B !"#$%&'(")*%+',-*.'/)%01.$"#).#*2%3452%(")*%+',-*.'/)%01.$"#).#*2%3452%60&%6.7879:2%60&%6.7879:2%4'("88*%& East Surrey Hospital Development Framework Surrey & Sussex NHS Trust 5.1.3 The Perimeter Hospital Street 5.1.4 Parking The Perimeter Hospital Street – Canada Avenue and Canada With the exception of the south car park, all current and future Drive – could be improved to: parking will be to the outside (east and north) of the Perimeter • Provide a continuous, high capacity and resilient route Hospital Street. between the main western (A23 and related communities) and southern access points.

David Lock Associates 21 with Davies Landscape Architects, WSP, EAD Ecology, Savills East Surrey Hospital Development Framework Surrey & Sussex NHS Trust 5.1.5 Future Development Parcels The master plan envisages future development on three parcels, all around the outside of the Perimeter Hospital Street, defined by the Perimeter Hospital Street and existing landscape features. These are: 1. The East Development Parcel to the east of the hospital defined by the Ancient Woodland, an existing mature hedgerow and restored landscape along Canada Avenue 2. The North East Development Parcel, broadly the site of the Golf Driving Range defined by restored landscape along Canada Avenue, a mature eastern hedgerow and a northern hedgerow to be enhanced as the boundary of built development 3. The North Development Parcel, currently the site of the main surface level car park and land to its north. This is an inefficient use of the land. 5.1.6 Other Parcels There is other land within the ownership of the Trust to the north of the campus and towards Royal Earlswood Park. At present this accommodates a nine-hole golf course. It is proposed that this should become public open space in perpetuity as a community asset and a Green Belt buffer.

It will also allow a stronger relationship between new buildings and open green landscape spaces that may have therapeutic benefits.

This has been driven by expediency and cost efficiency. Some parts of the site are more sensitive than others and the proposed enhancements to the public realm will define the spaces that are most sensitive to the quality of building design. This strategy concentrates public activity along the Perimeter Hospital Street, and this is where greatest attention to the quality of design should be concentrated to give a general uplift to the user experience. Any new buildings fronting the Perimeter Hospital Street and public routes should present high quality facades to those spaces. As opportunities arise for the redevelopment or refurbishment of existing frontages to those spaces, new designs should follow the same guidance. In the meantime, tree planting in the Perimeter Hospital Street corridor will soften any adverse visual impacts of existing building facades.
