<strong>Brookhurst</strong> <strong>Wood</strong><br />
About <strong>Brookhurst</strong> <strong>Wood</strong><br />
● <strong>Brookhurst</strong> <strong>Wood</strong> is an old brickworks and<br />
landfill site on the northern outskirts of<br />
Horsham, off Langhurstwood Road, Warnham.<br />
● <strong>Brookhurst</strong> <strong>Wood</strong> has helped West Sussex meet<br />
its waste management needs for many years.<br />
Formerly a clay pit, used to extract natural<br />
Sussex clay for the manufacture of bricks,<br />
landfill operations began on the site in 1985.<br />
● <strong>Biffa</strong> has owned and managed the site, which<br />
already disposes of West Sussex’s non-recycled<br />
household waste, since 1992.<br />
● These latest proposals will allow <strong>Biffa</strong> to<br />
continue to meet the County’s waste<br />
management needs at <strong>Brookhurst</strong> <strong>Wood</strong> over<br />
the coming decades in a more environmentallyfriendly<br />
way.<br />
Site location plan<br />
● As an industrial site <strong>Brookhurst</strong> <strong>Wood</strong> is<br />
well-suited to this use. It has existing landfill<br />
capacity, as well as space to develop <strong>Biffa</strong>’s<br />
proposed Mechanical Biological Treatment<br />
facility, and associated infrastructure.<br />
● Both West Sussex County Council and Horsham<br />
District Council recognise <strong>Brookhurst</strong> <strong>Wood</strong> as<br />
a potentially suitable location for a new waste<br />
management facility.
