I am writing in response to the recent consultation document on Alternative Sites for Strategic Housing identifying sites that have been put forward by landowners since the production of Warwick's Preferred Options of the Core Strategy in September 2009.

Site 2 in Leamington Spa, promoted by Redline Town Planning and Development Consultants on behalf of A C LLoyd, incorporates Campion School.

Please be advised that whilst we are aware that the proposal has been made, the County Council has no plans to relocate the school.

I should be grateful if you would keep me informed of any relevant developments and advise me of the outcome when a decision on the allocation of these further alternative sites is made.

Despite not being local experts of these sites and having mainly only the limited information provided, we do feel that we can use our Coventry experiences to offer views which may be of use.

1. The 6 submitted SHLAA Sites.
As far as the 3,500 proposed King's Hill Coventry's 'over-spill' is concerned, this could all be better accommodated within any of these 6 SHLAA sites with new residents benefiting from an improved viability compared with that possible from the King's Hill site. We have used your judgement classifications of 'Support' and 'Comment' to signify our view that although Site 5 and Site 6 would be better than King's Hill, they are less suitable as they are further away from the established housing in WDC. (As stated earlier, we do not believe that this overspill is required but our comments could also apply to WDC's own housing quota.)

Sites 1a & 1b, Kenilworth. Support.
Capable* of some 600 dwellings with road access onto Glasshouse Lane and close to established community. Woodside has some fine old trees which deserve appropriate consideration. (* Housing capacity taken as area in hectares x30).

Site 2, Campion School/South of Sydenham. Support.
Capable of some1550 units, limited by railway line and apparent watercourse to east and thus currently separated from established community but could probably have road access onto roundabout by hypermarket and bridges at Church Lane and Fieldgate Lane with a possible link to Chesterton Drive. The prospect of a new school seems attractive. This site seems to offer considerable potential and with some investment would be suitable for use.

Site 3, Glebe Farm, Cubbington. Support.
Capable of some 1,600 units and would fit into an existing established community and infra structure but would result in a loss of the open space view to existing residents and require improved access. Paths should be retained. Needs to seek views from existing residents but could be made to work.

Site 4,Loes Farm, Guy's Cliff, Warwick. Support.
Capable of some 1,290 units. Close to established Warwick and it's infra- structure. Some existing road access but A46 Underpass may have to be enlarged to take traffic. Cannot derive detail from printed map but there may be an inherent water drainage problem which probably has received attention. Otherwise it seems a good site but Warwick Parkway seems better.

Site 5, Hurst Farm South, Burton Green. Comment.
Capable of some 3,000 units. Close to the Coventry border but separate from an established WDC community. Physically close for Warwick University and is close to a recently enhanced road system. It is thought to be in the Green Belt and part of a buffer zone around Coventry. The views of the local residents should be considered.
However, it would seem ideal for accommodation requirements for Warwick University students in that the university has its own infra structure and would not need to have to introduce the wider range needs expected of a mixed community. Its use would restrict the sprawl of the university and allow more of the existing housing in the area to return to community use.

Site 6. Apparently capable of some 11,900 new housing units. Comment.
This is a very general site submission in that it covers a large area and FRA is more aware of the nature of the land and its characteristics, hence the term 'apparently capable' above. The actual new housing capacity is expected to be considerably less. Nevertheless, Site 6 does have much to recommend it for housing development both for the 3,500 unit Coventry over-spill along the WDC border (it is much more suitable than King's Hill) and WDC's own new housing allocation.
There are good road links including the A45 and A46 and links to M6, M69 & M1.
It may have an operating airport. There is an established community at Baginton with a Village Hall, children's equipped play area and church, etc. There are employment possibilities close to the proposed site and Coventry is relatively nearby. There would need to be an enlarged infra structure but new housing would be joining an established community rather than being alone on King's Hill.
There are aspects of the mapped area which must be respected and preserved; these include the Lunt Fort and Baggots Castle. There are areas which are regularly flooded and drainage may present problems.
The uncertainty regarding the airport and the mineral deposits relatively just underneath it should not be a deterrent to development. Mineral extraction has occurred some 40 years ago to the east of the site and the land stabilised such as to be suitable for building. Attention could be directed towards these areas but if such action is not opted for, then at least the experienced gained could be applied in the form of a rolling programme of low depth mineral extraction being planned and the recovered land being stabilised and returned for building purposes. The other advantage of using such land is that there are fewer relics to retain.
The Baginton proposal has much to recommend it but effective consultation with the local residents will produce the best result.


2. As far as general approaches are concerned, it would seem better to put new housing within or close to established WDC communities, preferably using Brown field sites and limiting the size of each development say to 25 dwelling units so as to aid assimilation. Advantage should be taken of the existing infra-structure including transport and employment.


3. Potentially there would seem to be more such sites and while it is more complicated to plan for these smaller developments, they do seem to offer more chance of a better outcome. The large site developments may be easier to organise and supposedly result in a lower unit price but they do little for community spirit.


4. One site which does seem to be ideal for development and yet has not been raised is that around Warwick Parkway with its excellent transport links and its closeness to Warwick itself.

5. WDC may wish to consider meeting its housing requirements and local needs by also encouraging some initiatives in its smaller communities or perhaps even starting a new town.
