Lack of access with limited sewerage provision and changes to a Grade II listed estate with formally identified TPO and Garden and Parkland.
The Woodcote Estate is a Grade 2 Listed Manor House of significant historical importance as a Manor House, as rehabilitation centre and as a Police Headquarters.
The grounds are formally listed as Gardens and Parkland
TPO0448 is in existence across the whole site
There are a number of rare indigenous wildlife species that inhabit the Garden and Parkland
There is confusion over the short term, mid term and long term use of Woodcote House by Warwickshire Police and West Mercia Police. Appropriate developments should only be considered once the usage by the Police Authorities is determines
There is NO access to the site, either through the Warwick Road / Woodcote Lane junction or into Woodcote Drive itself, either for motor vehicles, cycles, pedestrians or disables access
Further developments would endanger life and be hazardous to the environment
There is no provision for sewage, the existing sewage post Woodcote Drive is share owned by the residents and Warwickshire Police - agreement would be required to modify / adapt this existing infrastructure from the owners or completely new sewage infrastructure would need to be laid
Other discounted sites that do not have any of the above issues associated with them. These sites should be brought back into consideration albeit under a more restrictive housing volume regime
