Planning History

An outline planning application for up to 80 units and 615m2 of retail space was secured for the HCA in March 2012 for access only. A competition for the site was hosted by the HCA with the LPA involved as judges; this was won based on Re-Format's designs in 2013. The final developed scheme was submitted to PCC LPA in November 2015 for discharge of the remaining reserved matters and was subsequently approved at committee (with officer's recommendation for approval) on 8 February 2016. The HCA had strong involvement in this scheme. The agency undertook significant remediation work on site, investing around £3m. The HCA also put together a design brief, after which Radian was selected.
