DEVELOPMENT PLOT for SALE Tanwood Lane, Bluntington Nr DEVELOPMENT PLOT FOR SALE Tanwood Lane, Bluntington nr. Chaddesley Corbett, Worcestershire DY10 4NR. DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY 01562 270072 [email protected] Tanwood Lane, Bluntington, nr. Chaddesley Corbett, Worcestershire DY10 4NR. DEVELOPMENT PLOT FOR SALE An extremely RARE OPPORTUNITY to build a beautiful detached barn style house, situated across two plots measuring approximately 0.19 acres with unencumbered panoramic country side views to the rear in an exceptionally popular rural locality. The two plots that are available for purchase benefit from full planning consent to demolish the existing dwelling and to erect a 3 bedroom detached property offered with “NO UPWARD CHAIN” 01562 270072 [email protected] The Location Situated on the skirts of the village of Chaddesley Corbett offering great quiet country walks. Chaddesley Corbett has lovely range of independent shops including a florist, butchers, petrol station, garden centre and great public houses. In catchment for good primary schools. The village hosts the annual point to point race meets with a plethora of country side walks surrounding the village and plot. The A448 Bromsgrove to Kidderminster road is also joined at the end of the High Street and gives excellent links to both the M5 and M42 for commuters. Both Blakedown, Hartlebury and Kidderminster train stations are within 4 mile drive to access Birmingham, Worcester and beyond. Planning The property benefits from fully granted planning permission from the Wyre Forrest District Council (Application Ref: 20/0047/FUL) to erect a replacement dwelling (3 Bed) following the demolition of existing dwelling (Coach House). Further to this formal consent (Application Ref: 14/3020/PNRES) was previously obtained for the change of use from office to a residential dwelling. A certificate of lawful development (Application Ref: 17/0674/CERTP) was also granted on the 30th October 2017 to allow the side extension under permitted development thereby also giving the purchaser the option of converting and extending the existing Coach House. A successful stopping up order (under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 - section 247) was granted on the 26 April 2021 for the land along the front boundary of the site to allow for the replacement dwelling. This order is subject to a 6 week High Court Challenge period which expires on 13th May 2021. The final confirmed order will therefore be in place prior to exchange of contracts.

  • Outcome of Call for Sites for Neighbourhood Plan Review
    NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN REVIEW REPORT ON OUTCOME OF CALL FOR SITES FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING NOVEMBER 2020 BACKGROUND As part of the 2020/21 review of the Chaddesley Corbett Neighbourhood Plan, efforts have been made to identify one or more possible Rural Exception Sites to support a small development of affordable housing, as indicated by a Housing Needs Survey. To this end, Chaddesley Corbett Parish Council (CCPC) issued a Call for Sites in December 2019 which produced 10 sites for consideration. AECOM were commissioned to undertake an independent site appraisal of potential Rural Exception Sites; the work undertaken was agreed with CCPC and the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) in March 2020. The appraisal was prepared in the context of the Wyre Forest Local Plan (pre-submission version and subsequent amendments) and the ‘made’ Chaddesley Corbett Neighbourhood Plan. A total of 18 sites were assessed, comprising those that were identified by the Chaddesley Corbett Call for Sites and also sites within the Parish submitted through the Wyre Forest District Council Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment (HELAA). A copy of AECOM’s full report is available on the Parish Council website, www.chaddesleyparishcouncil.org.uk/neighbourhoodplan The site assessment was based on a traffic light system (red, amber, green); with green sites suitable for allocation, amber sites potentially suitable if identified constraints can be resolved or mitigated and red sites not suitable for allocation. Eight sites were selected for further consideration and formal consultation, although only one site was classified Green. The Parish Council decided to add another site to the consultation process, NP02(a) land at the top of Malvern View, as an alternative to NP02(c) which in view of its extensive views, they did not consider suitable for development.

It manifests itself in all aspects of the natural world; that of birds being no exception. Some of our residents are nesting earlier while many of our summer migrants are arriving earlier and staying longer, up to three weeks in some cases. It is not possible to show these relatively rapid changes using the average arrival and departure dates as they cover too long a period (over 70 years in some cases) so this year I have included the average dates over the previous eight years (not including the current year) – as used in New Birds of the West Midlands.
