Dover District Council 68 Land Allocations Local Plan Adopted 2015 Town Centre Boundary 3.194 The Retail Update (2012) shows that Sainsbury’s on West Street plays an important role in terms of retaining expenditure within the local area. To reflect the recommendations made within the Retail Update the town centre boundary has been amended, as shown in the diagram below, as this area functions as part of the town centre. Figure 3.8 Proposed Extension to Deal Town Centre Area Albert Road, Deal 3.195 Paragraph 3.67 of the Council’s Adopted Core Strategy highlighted that there may be the potential for further development in the Middle and North Deal area. 3.196 Further investigation, in the form of the Deal Study, has narrowed down the focus of the investigation on the area between Albert Road and Southwall Road. The Study indicates that there may be the opportunity to create a new road from Albert Road to Southwall Road, which would help to relieve traffic in Southwall Road. If it can be demonstrated that there is
Dover District Council Land Allocations Local Plan Adopted 2015 69 such potential, the mix of uses, including the suitability of retail and residential development, the new road, other associated traffic improvements and compatibility with flood risk policy can be advanced through a planning application. The development of Albert Road, Deal for B1 and B2 employment uses is covered by Saved Local Plan Policy LE5. Betteshanger Colliery Pithead The development of Betteshanger Colliery Pithead for B1, B2 and B8 employment uses is covered by Saved Local Plan Policy AS1. 3.3 Sandwich 3.197 Sandwich is a historic Cinque Port and market town on the River Stour, located in the north eastern part of the District. Sandwich is renowned for its medieval street pattern and high concentration of Listed Buildings. It is, however, located in a low lying landscape which has been identified as being within high risk of flooding. There are also European nature conservation designations (Ramsar, Special Protection Areas and Special Areas of Conservation) to the north and east of Sandwich. 3.198 The parish of Sandwich has a population of 4,985 (15) and approximately 2,528 dwellings (16) . To the north of the town there is a major business area leading up to and including Richborough. 3.199 Sandwich serves the daily needs of the town itself and neighbouring villages and has a wide selection of services including a range of shops, primary and secondary schools and medical facilities. The town is also served by a mainline railway with a high speed train service to London operating at peak times. The principal A256 route from Dover to Thanet has recently been upgraded to a dual carriageway through the East Kent Access programme. To the north of the town is Discovery Park Enterprise Zone. 3.200 An international golf course, Royal St. George's Golf Club, which has hosted the British Open Championship, lies to the immediate east of the town. A second golf course, Princes Golf Course, lies to the north east. Both are important contributors to the local economy and profile of the area. The Core Strategy has identified Sandwich as a 'Rural Service Centre' the main focus for development in the rural area, suitable for a scale of development that would reinforce its role as a provider of services to a wide rural area. Urban Grain and Structure 3.201 The medieval origins are clearly seen in the tightly knit street pattern and built form within the remains of the town wall; a Scheduled Monument. Outside of the town wall, to the south and west, the street pattern becomes looser, reflecting latter day developments. The River Stour has, historically, limited development to the north and it is only since the 15 2011 Census Table QS103EW 16 2011 Census Table QS418EW
