Appendix 5: Detailed Site Assessment TablesSiteSite andSurroundingAreasInformationGT.13 The Daglands open space, Camerton, BA2 0PRThe site is 0.47 hectares.The site is located immediately adjacent to the housing development boundary of Camerton.The site has more limited access to key services and facilities than other sites but is located outside the Green Belt.The site topography relative to The Daglands may require screening to preserve neighbouring residents’ amenity and privacy.HighwaysThe site does not benefit from existing formal vehicular access from the public highway. Access from The Daglands wouldrequire works due to the slope of the access to the site. The access would only permit single way flow which would requiresafeguards to be put in place to manage access and egress at this location.Access to the site would require access over land under third party ownership. Necessary legal consents would have to beachieved.Site ConstraintsThe site is covered by Local Plan policy SR.1A (Public Open Space) which deems the site unsuitable for redevelopment.Development of this site would require suitable and equivalent quality and quantity recreation space to be provided in an easilyaccessible location.Guidance on the design of Gypsy and Traveller sites recommend that sites should not be developed on sloping land wherethere is the risk of caravans being overturned. Site topography would require works to make the site stable for residentialaccommodation and this would have cost implications. The development of this site would also require a detailed landscapeassessment to assess the impact on surrounding areas.Potential forDevelopment andSuitabilityThe site is not in a highly accessible location but is adjacent to existing residential properties. The development of this sitewould meet an identified need for a medium scale residential site.
Appendix 5: Detailed Site Assessment TablesAvailability andAchievabilitySite CapacityThe site is Council-owned but is available for development now.Topography makes development of this land as a Gypsy or Traveller site difficult but not unachievable. Site topography is asignificant barrier to development. Full landscape and highways assessments would be required to ascertain developability.The site consists of a steeply sloping area topped by a flat area of open space which currently contains play equipment.Based on 500m2 pitch sizes (including for internal circulation, residents and visitor parking), the site of 0.42ha would have aholding capacity of 8 pitches, suitable for a permanent site.Recommendation This site has a number of issues which would require mitigation works to be completed prior to development andoccupation as a Gypsy / Traveller site, and for appropriate land to be identified to replace the existing play space.Subject to these works being agreed, the site should be allocated for a maximum of 9 permanent residential pitches.
