  • Bristol Urban Potential Assessment: February 2018
    West of England Joint Spatial Plan Bristol Local Plan Review Urban Potential Assessment Published February 2018 Photo: Kendall Kingscott Ltd. i Bristol Urban Potential Assessment Published February 2018 Summary Bristol has experienced sustained population growth since 2004 and has seen a high number of new homes completed over the same period. The vast majority of new homes delivered over this period have been on brownfield land, with only a small proportion being built on greenfield sites. Bristol City Council has carried out a thorough urban potential assessment which has established the capacity of the urban area to deliver around a further 12,400 homes by 2036 on sites of ten or more dwellings. As well as a general citywide search for brownfield development potential, focused studies have been carried out of the potential from other sources of land, including safeguarded industrial land, undeveloped land, the conversion or redevelopment of city centre offices and higher density forms of development on existing Bristol Local Plan site allocations. The assessment was carried out over the period June 2015 to March 2016. Based on consistent density assumptions and considered constraints analysis, Bristol’s estimated capacity to accommodate new homes over the period to 2036 on sites of ten or more dwellings, above and beyond those already planned and forecast, is as follows: Source Approx potential homes Main citywide site search 6,150 Potential from underused industrial land 1,500 Potential from undeveloped land 1,000 Potential from city centre office sites 2,150 Uplift of site allocations 1,600 Total 12,400 In addition to the baseline capacity set out above, a number of locations have been identified in which land with potential for new homes is highly clustered, where interventions could help to bring forward a considerable additional supply of new homes.

    Bristol Local Plan Review Annex - Draft Development Allocations Consultation - March 2019 Bristol Local Plan Review Annex – Draft Development Allocations Consultation March 2019 Bristol Local Plan Review Annex – Draft Development Allocations Consultation March 2019 Introduction Draft Development Allocations This Annex provides details of the proposed Development Allocations listed under Draft Policy DA1 ‘Proposed development allocations’. It is structured around the 34 Wards in Bristol. The Annex includes sites outside the Areas of Growth and Regeneration set out in the Local Plan Review Draft Policies document. A number of sites have already been allocated for development in Neighbourhood Plans. Draft Policy DA1 ‘Proposed development allocations’ proposes that the sites listed will be developed for the uses identified in this Annex and in accordance with the draft development considerations which accompany each site and with all other relevant development plan policies. Sites proposed for a residential allocation are for use class C3(a) unless stated otherwise in the proposed allocation. For those sites with a proposed housing allocation, an estimated number of homes which could be developed on the site is normally provided. Capacities are given as an estimate based on achieving an efficient use of land. They do not represent a maximum number of homes. If the capacity indicated is not possible due to site considerations, a lower number of homes than the one stated would be appropriate. Where a draft allocation is for mixed-use development, the mix of uses may also change the estimated capacity. Once adopted, the precise number of homes to be developed will be determined through the planning application process, in accordance with the Urban Living Supplementary Planning Document and draft Local Plan Policies UL1, UL2, DC1 and DC2.

Their early history has been interpreted from a limited number of archaeological finds, and from Anglo Saxon charters and Medieval deeds. By comparison the modern history is more certain, and is supported by a particularly rich visual archive including numerous paintings, drawings and postcards. The recent history of Clifton and Durdham Downs is in essence the history of change to their immediate surroundings. Threatened by rapid expansion of the city in the 19th century, farsighted and timely protection in the public interest secured the Downs in perpetuity. As the size of the surrounding population increased beyond recognition, Bristol’s reliance on the Downs fundamentally evolved from agricultural need to social and recreational wants. Others have undertaken several detailed studies, notably those constituting the University of Bristol Avon Gorge Project (c1988).
