LOCATION: Duke of York, 159 Northampton Road, Wellingborough. NN8 3PN APPLICANT: Brampton Valley Wellingborough Limited. Committee consideration and site visit owing to the number of objections and request by Councillor Bell. DESCRIPTION OF SITE AND PROPOSAL: The application site is located at the junction of Northampton Road and Kingsway. It measures 0.27 hectares in area and is currently occupied by the vacant Duke of York Public House. The site is also occupied by associated hard-standing parking areas and a small garden area to the rear of the existing building. The site is surrounded predominantly by established residential properties. The site lies in an area of uneven topography and slopes downward from Northampton Road along Kingsway towards the southern common boundary with the church. The northern and western site boundaries face residential properties on the opposite side of the intervening roads and the north-western corner faces a Premier convenience store with residential properties beyond. The eastern boundary of the site adjoins the neighbouring residential property, the rear garden of which forms the majority of the boundary; with other residential properties and their rear gardens located beyond, along Northampton Road. Adjoining the southern boundary of the site is the St Edmund Campion Catholic Church and school. There are two existing points of vehicular access to the site, which serve the two separate car parking areas; one via a point off the Northampton Road to the north and the main one from Kingsway to the west. The application was originally submitted, proposing a 78-bed care home with 16 car parking spaces. Owing to concerns about the design and bulk of the building, the proposal has been scaled down, with a height reduction and corresponding decrease in the number of bedrooms. Consent is now sought for the demolition of the existing public house building, to be replaced by a 72 bedroom care home. The Care Home is predominantly designed over three storeys; although there is a lower ground floor m .5 2 7 B 3 7 WP/2010/0143/FM 0 487700 5 487900 © Crown Copyright.

In response to the Highway Authority about the lack of manoeuvring area on the site, the scheme was further amended with the main car park area revisited and now includes an adequate area for refuse trucks to manoeuvre on site. This has resulted in a total of 18 car park spaces on site. The proposed building is ‘U’ shaped, wrapping around a central court yard area to the rear of the property, which is to include a garden and amenity space for residents. The building itself follows a triple fronted design, ensuring maximum frontage and street scene presence from the two main road aspects. The accommodation will comprise of approximately 3,247 sq m of gross internal floor space, providing state of the art, purpose built accommodation; whilst achieving a high sustainability rating. There are proposed to be two vehicular access points to the site. The main access point to the site is to be located in the southern corner and will lead to an 13 space car park and servicing area. This will replace the existing vehicular access of Kingsway. The existing site entrance off Northampton Road will also be utilised, providing access to a 5 space car parking area, including 2 disabled bays. The applicant states that a total of 81 staff members would be employed at the facility and about a quarter of these would be on site at any given point in time. RELEVANT PLANNING HISTORY: The application site is a purpose built public house with a history of consent for various signage and alterations. NATIONAL AND LOCAL PLANNING POLICY: Planning Policy Statement 1 – Delivering Sustainable Development Planning Policy Statement 3 – Housing Planning Policy Guidance Note 13 – Transport (PPG13). East Midlands Regional Plan Policy 2 – Promoting Better Design Policy 3 - Distribution of New Development North Northamptonshire Core Spatial Strategy Policy 1 – Strengthening the Network of Settlements Policy 13 – General Sustainable Development Principles Policy 14 – Energy Efficiency and Sustainable Construction North Northamptonshire Joint Planning Unit – Sustainable Design Supplementary Planning Guidance. SUMMARY OF REPLIES TO CONSULTATIONS/REPRESENTATIONS RECEIVED: 1. NCC Highways – comments awaited. 2. NCC – no requirement for S106 contribution, but suggested informatives. 3. Environment Agency – no objection. 4. Anglian Water – no objection. - 3 - 5. Northants Police – “Due to the potential vulnerability of the occupants, I would suggest a robust approach to internal and external security is taken. Please can you approach the applicant for further information regarding crime prevention matters. The Applicant has by way of an addendum put that they will seek advice and pasted the Secured By Design logo on to their paper work is not adequate and does not specify how this vulnerable group of our society will be safe. It is important that Crime Prevention Design advisors are consulted early in the design stage to discuss the layout to reduce the chance of crime and anti-social behaviour from occurring. The updated planning statement does mention crime prevention but does not give any clear details. On page 245 of The Code for Sustainable Homes: Technical Guide 2008; Aim to encourage the design of developments where people feel safe and secure; where crime and disorder, or the fear of crime, does not undermine quality of life or community cohesion. Due to its location the safety and security of its residents could be compromised if crime prevention measures are not taken. PPS1 makes clear that a key objective for new developments should be that they create safe and accessible environments where crime and disorder or fear of crime does not undermine quality of life or community cohesion.” 6. Care Quality Commission – no comments. 7. Wellingborough Civic Society – no objections. 8. BCW Design and Conservation Officer – scheme has been designed in consultation with the Design Officer, who has been involved at every stage of the process from pre-application stage. 9. BCW Amenity Services – no requirement for a S106 contribution. Development will be treated as a commercial development and payment expected to be made directly for any services provided. 10. Several letters of objection from local residents. Summary of the grounds of objection as follows: - Insufficient parking provision and resulting traffic problems and congestion; - Problematic access arrangements; - Over-development and excessive scale/height, not in keeping with the character and appearance of the area; - Too many bedrooms; - Overlooking/loss of privacy; - Inaccurate representations on the submitted plans in respect of neighbouring properties. - 4 - ASSESSMENT: Principle of the Development There is no specific policy objection to the loss of public houses in the development plan. Policy 13 of the Core Spatial Strategy seeks to protect and improve accessible community facilities. It is not clear whether or not the public house, prior to its closure, provided any meaningful communal function.

  • Earls Barton Conservation Area Character Appraisal
    EARLS BARTON CONSERVATION AREA CHARACTER APPRAISAL 1. ORIGINS AND DEVELOPMENT 1.1 Earls Barton lies 3½ miles south west of Wellingborough and 6½ miles east north east of Northampton, but set well back (at just over half a mile to the south) from the old road linking these two larger towns. 1.2 Settlement in the central part of Northamptonshire is mostly restricted to the margins of the main valleys of the Nene, Welland and Ise, often on hill tops and spurs well above the floodplains. In common with other villages on either side of the Nene such as Grendon, Cogenhoe, Wollaston and Billing, Earls Barton is perched on a spur of land projecting above the prevailing contours which rise from the river (42m AOD) across extensive ground terraces and then more steeply over outcrops of Upper Lias Clay to a flat-topped ridge of sand and limestone at approximately 100m AOD. (RCHME, 1979). An additional underlying factor in the genesis of the settlement pattern is the customary availability of springs between the 80 and 90 metre contours (AOD), and indeed much of the historic centre of Earls Barton lies within this range. 1.3 However, the village’s unique local topographical feature (with the possible exception of Wollaston castle mount on the other side of the Nene Valley), and clearly its historical raison d’être, is the Scheduled Ancient Monument know as Berry Mount.1 Whereas Victoria County History2 speculates that the landform is “apparently a mote castle”, the RCHME analysis of 1979 suggest that this may not be the case, pointing out that “the relationship between mound and ditch is unusual, especially on the east side where the ditch appears to be turning south- east on an alignment different from the curve of the mound.

  • Mears Ashby Village Design Statement Supplementary Planning Document
    BOROUGH COUNCIL OF WELLINGBOROUGH AGENDA ITEM 5 Development Committee 30 January 2017 Report of The Head of Planning and Local Development MEARS ASHBY VILLAGE DESIGN STATEMENT SUPPLEMENTARY PLANNING DOCUMENT 1 Purpose of report To seek adoption of the Mears Ashby Village Design Statement (VDS) as a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD). 2 Executive summary A VDS has been prepared for Mears Ashby by the local community with assistance from the borough council. The document will supplement policies in the North Northants Joint Core Strategy (NNJCS), by helping to define the local character in the parish. This report recommends the adoption of the VDS as an SPD. 3 Appendices Appendix 1 – Mears Ashby Village Design Statement Appendix 2 - Mears Ashby Village Design Statement SPD Strategic Environmental Assessment Screening Report Appendix 3 – Schedule of Comments received to the consultation 4 Proposed action: 4.1 The committee is invited to RECOMMEND that the Mears Ashby Village Design Statement is adopted as a Supplementary Planning Document. 5 Background 5.1 SPDs add further detail to policies in the local plan. They can be used to provide further guidance for development on specific sites or on particular issues. SPDs are capable of being material considerations in planning decisions but are not part of the development plan. The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) advises that they should be used where they can help applicants make successful applications or aid infrastructure delivery, but that they should not be used to add unnecessarily to the financial burdens on development. 5.2 In order to be adopted as an SPD documents must be subject to consultation for at least four weeks.
