West Chiltington Parish
HDC SHELAA Housing Land Report by Parish, December 2018 West Chiltington Parish
The following sites have been considered as part of the December 2018 SHELAA Housing Land Assessment for the Parish.
A map depicting the entire site area and summary of each site assessment is included on the following pages.
Please note that the classification of a site is based on the classification of the developable area within that site, therefore if part of a site is considered ‘developable’ 6‐10 years, the whole site would be coloured yellow, however in reality only part of that site may be considered suitable for development.
The outcome of the assessment for West Chiltington Parish is summarised as follows:

Years 1-5 Deliverable Site Address Broadford Bridge Road, West Chiltington Years 6-10 Developable Years 11+ Site Area (ha) 4 Suitable Not Currently Developable Greenfield/PDL Greenfield Available Site Total 15 Achievable
Justification The site is controlled by WSCC who have expressed an interest in bringing the site forward for development. The site is therefore considered to be available.
This site lies outside but abuts the built up area boundary of West Chiltington which is classified as a medium village Policy 3 of the Horsham District Planning Framework 2015(HDPF), having moderate level of services and facilities. The site lies within a Bat Sustenance Zone and contains a number trees with TPOs. Along the eastern boundary lies a public right of way and to the southwest but not adjoining lies the Conservation Area of West Chiltington. Any future development would need to take these factors into account along with access and topography as appropriate. The latter two could affect achievability in the short term. Unless allocated for development or similar through the review of the Horsham District Planning Framework (HDPF) or via a made Neighbourhood Plan, it is considered development would be contrary to Policies 1 to 4 and 26 of the HDPF.
The settlement hierarchy and current planned development approach set out in the HDPF impacts upon suitability and achievability. The HDPF is however under review and additional site allocations will need to be considered through this process. In addition, the Parish is preparing a Neighbourhood Plan. On this basis, recognising that the SHELAA is a high level assessment, the site is assessed as developable in 6-10 years for 15 units taking into account its proximity to a built up area boundary and proportionate high level regard to the constraints. A scheme of this size would likely be delivered in a single phase

Years 1-5 Deliverable Site Address West Chiltington Years 6-10 Developable Years 11+ Site Area (ha) 2.4 Suitable Not Currently Developable Greenfield/PDL Greenfield Available Site Total 5 Achievable
Justification The landowner has expressed an interest to develop the site, meaning the site is available. The site lies outside of but adjoining the edge of the built up area of West Chiltington Common, which, together with West Chiltington Village, is classified as a Medium Village in Policy 3 of the Horsham District Planning Framework (HDPF), having a moderate level of services and facilities. Unless allocated for development through the review of the Horsham District Planning Framework (HDPF) or via a Neighbourhood Plan, it is considered development would be contrary to Policies 1 to 4 and 26 of the HDPF.
The settlement hierarchy and current planned development approach set out in the HDPF therefore impacts upon suitability and achievability. The site lies within a Bat Sustenance Zone and is largely wooded with approximately two thirds of the site covered by a Tree Preservation Order. A Grade II Listed Building lies to the east of the site (Gentle Harrys Farm) and a public right of way runs alongside the western boundary. The northern boundary adjoins a recreational area. The HDPF is under review and additional site allocations will need to be considered through this process. In addition, the Parish is preparing a Neighbourhood Plan. On this basis, recognising that the SHELAA is a high level assessment, the site is assessed as developable in 11+ years for 5 units taking into account its proximity to the built up area boundary and proportionate high level regard to the constraints. A scheme of this size would likely be delivered in a single phase.

SHLAA Reference SA059 Site Name Land at Southlands
Years 1-5 Deliverable Site Address Southlands Lane, West Chiltington Years 6-10 Developable Years 11+ Site Area (ha) 34.2 Suitable Not Currently Developable Greenfield/PDL Greenfield Available Site Total 0 Achievable
Justification The landowner has expressed an interest to develop the site meaning it is 'available'. The site lies in the countryside partially adjoining the built up area boundary of West Chiltington Common, which, together with West Chiltington Village, is classified as a Medium Village in Policy 3 of the Horsham District Planning Framework (HDPF), having a moderate level of services and facilities. Although adjoining a small area of the BUAB the site is not well related to the built form and is very rural in character. Access is limited and any development would likely require major improvements to the surrounding infrastructure to make it viable. The Grade II listed Southlands is also contained within the site. Unless allocated for development through the review of the HDPF or via a made Neighbourhood Plan, it is considered development would be contrary to Policies 1 to 4 and 26 of the HDPF. The site is therefore assessed as 'Not Currently Developable'.

Justification An agent on behalf of the landowner has expressed an interest in developing the site meaning it is 'available'. The site is in the countryside, adjacent to the eastern edge of the built up area boundary of West Chiltington Common which is classified as a medium village in Policy 3 of the Horsham District Planning Framework 2015 (HDPF), having moderate level of services and facilities. Unless allocated for development through the review of the Horsham District Planning Framework (HDPF) or via a made Neighbourhood Plan, it is considered development would be contrary to Policies 1 to 4 and 26 of the HDPF. In addition, this site, although located adjacent to the settlement edge, is not well related to the built form of the village. It is therefore assessed as ‘Not Currently Developable’.

Justification The landowner has expressed an interest to develop the site meaning it is 'available’. This is a greenfield site located adjacent to the settlement edge of West Chiltington Common, which, together with West Chiltington Village, is classified as a Medium Village in Policy 3 of the Horsham District Planning Framework (HDPF), having a moderate level of services and facilities. An application for 19 dwellings (DC/15/1389) on the site was refused and tested at appeal with the Planning Inspector confirming that the landscape value of the site contributed towards settlement separation. Unless allocated for development through the review of the HDPF or via a made neighbourhood plan, it is considered development would be contrary to Policies 1 to 4 and 26 of the HDPF. On this basis and given that any development in this location could erode settlement separation, the site is therefore assessed as ‘Not Currently Developable’.

Years 1-5 Deliverable Site Address Steepwood Farm, Adversane Lane, Adversane, Years 6-10 Developable West Sussex Years 11+ Site Area (ha) 150.11 Suitable Not Currently Developable Greenfield/PDL Greenfield Available Site Total 0 Achievable
Justification A planning consultant on behalf of the landowners has expressed an interest in developing the site meaning it is ‘available’. The site was originally identified as an area of search for a potential strategic site option in the preparation of the Horsham District Planning Framework 2015 (HDPF). This smaller site is within an Archaeological Notification Area and contains two areas of Ancient Woodland. It is mainly located in West Chiltington Parish, but the land area also falls in part within the Parishes of Billingshurst and Pulborough.
The site is unrelated to any defined built up area boundary and any development in this location would need to take the form of a new settlement. There is limited infrastructure in this area and this would need to be addressed before any development could come forward.
Unless allocated for development through the review of the Horsham District Planning Framework (HDPF) or via a made neighbourhood plan, it is considered development would be contrary to Policies 1 to 4 and 26 of the HDPF. The site is therefore assessed as ‘Not Currently Developable’.
