densely overgrown with vegetation, which would need to be cleared

prior to development.

General Market Attractiveness Located in an established industrial area on the outskirts of

Perranporth. Some of the units are vacant but many appeared to be

in active use and serving the needs of small local businesses.

Criteria Detail



Site Description/

Characteristics

Previously developed site comprising four undeveloped plots

located within the established United Downs Phase 1 estate, to the

south-east of Redruth.

Plot 8 is currently used for equipment storage. Plot 10 is very small

and located at the entrance to Plot 11. Plot 11 has been used to

store equipment and is partially overgrown. Plot 15 comprises

dense overgrown scrubland.


Planning History

AGHV surrounding the site.

There are no extant planning permissions associated with the

undeveloped plots.




Infrastructure Constraints Poor access to the main road network; the A30 is 2 miles from the

site and the A394 is approximately 5 miles from the site. The site

is not served well by public transport. Circulation and parking

within the estate is reasonable, and existing estates road provides

access.

Environmental Constraints Generally these sites are flat but they need to be cleared of

scrubland and equipment storage. The site is surrounded by open

countryside and AGHV.

General Market Attractiveness The site is located in one of the main industrial areas to the south

east of Redruth.

Plot 10 is a very small plot, which could be made more attractive by

joining it with Plot 11.

Undeveloped Area (ha) 0.37 (only 0.18 is undeveloped land)


Site Description/

Characteristics

Previously developed site in a village location between Camborne and

Helston. The site comprises low grade warehouse buildings and a car

maintenance business. The undeveloped plot lies to the rear of the

existing building and comprises 0.18ha.



Originally allocated in the Helston Local Plan with outline planning for

9,000 sq.ft workshop units albeit this has now expired.


/Planning History

A World Heritage Site (WHS) lies to the north. The north of the site lies

in Flood Zone 2.

Planning permission was recently sought for an industrial building with

parking located to the rear of the site (ref.W2/PA09/01297/F). It would

appear that construction has commenced.

Infrastructure Constraints Village location between Camborne and Helston with poor access to the

main road network. The A30 is 3 miles from the site and can be

accessed via B3303. Access by public transport is reasonable and

there is a bus stop on the main road. Car parking at the site is

constrained; access and turning into the site is constrained.

Environmental Constraints Previously developed site in a village location. WHS on the site’s

northern boundary and the northern part of the site runs along Flood

Zone 2. The site may contain Japanese Knotweed.

General Market Attractiveness The site is in a rural location with reasonable access to the main road

network; the A30 is 3 miles from the site accessed via the B3303.

Existing employment uses and new construction activity underway.



Building to the rear of the site has been demolished and new steel work

is on site suggesting that construction is due to commence.

Small Greenfield plot adjacent to existing employment site in a rural location outside of Redruth.


The site is within a Problem Drainage Area. Half of the site lies within Flood Zones 2 and 3.



Infrastructure Constraints The site is in a rural location to the north of Redruth, on the B3300, within 500m of the A30. A bus stop lies within 500m of the site. The wider site is on two levels within the eastern site being on higher ground. Ample space to provide access, circulate and turning. The plot would require servicing and access to be constructed

Environmental Constraints Flat, greenfield site with Japanese Knotweed known to exist on site. Plot 9 screened by dense vegetation; no other obvious environmental contraints

General Market Attractiveness Rural location but within 500m of the A30. The estate is poorly laid out but currently ample circulating and parking. This site may be suitable for local businesses adjoining existing employment uses.

Site Name Kea Farm (Former Holly Farm Saw Mills), Chacewater Site Ref. TCR/88

Criteria Detail



Site Description/

Characteristics

Previously developed site located to the east of the former saw mills,

in a rural location outside the village of Chacewater. A number of

warehouse buildings have been constructed on the site and the

undeveloped plot at the end has been left fallow and planted with

sapling trees.


Planning History

The site is the subject of planning permission for industrial units (ref.

PA04/0962/06/B), which has been implemented. The undeveloped

site itself features in the landscaping plan for the site (see Condition

10 of the associated Decision Notice). There is also a historic

application for housing with workspace.




Infrastructure Constraints The site is close proximity to the A30 and the A390. Access,

circulation and parking within the site is sufficient to serve the new

warehouse units. Public transport to the site is poor.

Environmental Constraints Raised mound recently planted with young trees.

General Market Attractiveness The site is in a rural location in close proximity to the main road

network, including the A30 and A390. The site has recently been

developed for warehouse units, all of which appear occupied.



The site has recently been built out with new warehouse units and the

undeveloped site, which features within the site wide landscape

strategy, has been recently planted with young trees. There are limited

prospects for developing this undeveloped site.

Planning History

Allocated employment site.



Allocated in North Caradon Local Plan 1999 and no development

has occurred since this time.

Infrastructure Constraints Road access to the site is poor as it is off The Sidings; a

residential street with no through access. The Sidings can be
