  • Site Ref: IP132 Former St Peter's Warehouse, 4 Bridge Street Site Area
    Site ref: IP132 Former St Peter’s Warehouse, 4 Bridge Street Site area: 0.18ha Allocation Policy SP2 Use(s) Indicative capacity Primary Residential 73 (high end of high density range expected) Secondary Offices (B1a) Subject to layout of site - assume commercial uses on 2 lower floors Leisure / Retail (small scale) * see Core Strategy policy DM22 for minimum and average densities. Adopted Plan 2017 As above Current use Temporary car park. Development constraints / issues The site contains the grade II listed No. 4 College Street and lies within an area of archaeological importance and the Central Conservation Area. It is located adjacent to the Wet Dock Conservation Area and close to, and within the setting of, the grade II* listed Church of St Peter and the scheduled monument of Wolsey’s Gate. The site lies in an area of archaeological importance (IPS 413), on the Anglo-Saxon and medieval waterfront of Ipswich. This site potentially represents that last surviving section of ‘early’ waterfront. There is high potential for archaeological remains of possible national significance, such as important waterlogged remains and the potential remains of bridges dating from at least the 10th century. Detailed early pre-application discussion with Suffolk County Council Archaeological Service and Historic England would be required to agree the scope of required assessment, the principle of development and to inform design (e.g. to allow for preservation in-situ of deposits or appropriate programmes of work). Where development is accepted in principle, archaeological remains will be complex and important and mitigation could involve significant costs and timescales.
