Dear Sir / Madam
Leeds Local Plan – Site Allocations Plan Publication Draft Consultation (September-November 2015)
Land at Thorpe Lower Lane, Thorpe On The Hill, Leeds.
Knight Frank is instructed by our client, Britannia Refined Metals Limited (BRM), to submit representations
for the above site towards Leeds’ current public consultation on the Site Allocations Plan Publication Draft
document, which runs from 22 September to 16 November 2015.
The Leeds Site Allocations Plan Publication Draft document sets out the sites that the Council has identified
as preferred development locations, in order to meet the housing and employment targets that the Council
must meet for each settlement over the next 15 years. Upon adoption, the document will form a part of the
Leeds Local Plan.
Within the Site Allocations Plan Publication Draft document, the Council identifies our client’s site as
‘Identified Employment Land’ (LPA reference EG1-61) to the west and as an ‘Allocation for Employment’ (ref
EG-21) to the east. A map of our client’s land ownership can be found at Appendix 1.
The Site
The site, as a whole, measures approximately 5.3ha and is located to the east of the rural settlement of
Thorpe On The Hill. Access to the site is presently achieved off the A654 Thorpe Lower Lane to the north,
which bounds the site along this perimeter. To the west, the site is bordered by an area of tree lined,
Greenfield land, beyond which lies Lingwell Gate Lane. The site is also located within close proximity of both
the M1 and M62 to the south east, offering excellent access to the wider region and beyond.
The westernmost section of the site is currently safeguarded for general waste purposes within the Adopted
Natural Resources and Waste Plan (2013), and immediately abuts an allocated employment site (ref E4.40)
adjacent Lingwell Gate Lane. To the east, the site comprises designated Green Belt.
To the west, the site comprises relatively flat, vacant Brownfield land which was previously used by Britannia
Refined Metals Ltd for the collection and recycling of lead. The factory closed in 2002 and the site has since
been cleared of built form, although a significant area of hard standing is still present. Significant land
contamination issues are known to exist. In the intervening period, the site has been marketed and occupied
by one tenant and subsequently Knight Frank has robust market evidence to suggest the site is no longer
Page 2
suitable for such a use and that there is no market demand. The site comprises a significant proportion,
although not all of, the EG1-61 ‘Identified Employment Land’ designation.
To the east, the site comprises vacant Greenfield land, situated within the designated Green Belt.
Planning History
On behalf of our client, Knight Frank previously submitted a Pre-Application enquiry to Leeds City Council in
February 2011, in respect of the redevelopment of the westernmost edge of the site for residential
development, now allocated as EG1-61 within the Site Allocations Plan Publication Draft. Alongside this
enquiry, an indicative site layout was submitted to the Council which illustrates that up to 60 units could be
accommodated within this section of the site alone. A sketch masterplan can be found at Appendix 2 for
reference.
Current Allocation
Whilst the policies contained within the Core Strategy Development Plan (2014) have replaced a significant
number of policies contained within the Leeds Unitary Development Plan Review (UDP, 2006), until the Site
Allocations Plan is adopted, the UDP Proposals Map remains a part of Leeds’ Local Development Plan.
The UDP Proposals Map (Revised to include the Natural Resources and Waste Plan 2013), identifies that
westernmost section of the site, which abuts allocated employment land bordering Lingwell Gate Lane, is
safeguarded for general waste purposes.
Whilst the UDP Proposals Map remains a part of the Local Development Framework at present, UDP Policy
WM4: Recovery of Waste has been replaced by Policy WASTE 2 of the Leeds Natural Resources and
Waste Development Plan Document (2013).
Policy WASTE2 states, ‘Existing waste management sites shown on the Policies Map are safeguarded for
continued use during the plan period. Increases in capacity or other improvements at these sites will be
acceptable provided that the requirements of WASTE 9 are demonstrated. Applications for change of use
must demonstrate that there is either no longer a need to retain the site for waste management purposes or
there is an overriding case for the proposed development that outweighs the need to retain the site for waste
management purposes’.
The UDP Proposals Map also identifies that the easternmost section of the site comprises Green Belt land.
As such Core Strategy Policy SP10 (Green Belt) is directly applicable and states, ‘A review of the Green
Belt will need to be carried out to accommodate the scale of housing and employment growth identified in
Spatial Policy 6 and Spatial Policy 9, as well as an additional contingency to create new Protected Areas of
search (to replace those in the UDP which will be allocated for future development). The review will generally
consider Green Belt release around:
i. The Main Urban Area (Leeds City Centre and shrouding areas forming the main urban and
suburban areas of the City);
ii. Major settlements of Garforth, Guisley/Yeadon/Rawdon, Morley, Otley, Rothwell and Wetehrby;
iii. Similar settlements (listed in Table 1: Settlement Hierarchy.
Exceptionally, sites unrelated to the Main Urban Area, Major Settlements and Smaller Settlements could be
considered, where they will be in sustainable locations and are able to provide a full range of local facilities
and services and within the context of their Housing Market Characteristic Area, are more appropriate in
meeting the spatial objectives of the Plan than the alternatives in the Settlement Hierarchy. Otherwise
review of the Green Belt will not be considered to ensure its general extent is maintained.
Page 3
In assessing whether sites in the Green Belt review should be allocated for development,, the following
criteria will be applied:
iv. Sites will be assessed against the purposes of including land in Green Belts identified in national
guidance (National Planning Policy Framework). These are:
to check the unrestricted sprawl of large built-up areas;
to prevent neighbouring towns merging;
to assist in safeguarding the countryside from encroachment;
to preserve the setting and special character of historic towns; and
to assist in urban regeneration
Proposed Allocation
The Interactive Map of Sites (2015), which forms a part of the Leeds Site Allocation Plan Publication Draft,
identifies our client’s site as a mix of both ‘Identified Employment’ (reference EG1-61) to the west,
understood to have arisen from the site’s historic industrial use, and ‘Allocated Employment’ (reference EG-
21) the east.
Soundness of the Leeds Site Allocations Plan Publication Draft
It is understood that as this consultation relates to the Site Allocations Publication Draft, the representations
which are received will be considered alongside the submitted Site Allocations document which will be
examined by an Independent Planning Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State. As such, at this
juncture, only comments which relate to document’s soundness; legal compliance and the duty to cooperate
will be considered, in accordance with the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 (as amended).
The purpose of our representation is to object to the inclusion of our client’s land as both an ‘Identified
Employment’ and ‘Allocated Employment site within the Site Allocations Publication document. As such, we
do not wish to comment on issues surrounding the duty to cooperate or legal compliance at this stage.
With regard to the content of this document and the site’s and policies contained within, it is considered that
the Publication document is not ‘sound’ for the reasons set out below.
Positively Prepared
Paragraph 182 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) states that, ‘the plan should be prepared
based on a strategy which seeks to meet objectively assessed development and infrastructure requirements,
including unmet requirements from neighbouring authorities where it is reasonable to do so and consistent
with achieving sustainable development’.
This site has been vacant since 2002, within which period it has been marketed for both sale and lease, with
robust evidence of little interest or demand for the site for its allocated purpose. Whilst the site has been let
to one tenant in this intervening period and has been subject to one offer of purchase from an aggregates
sorting firm, it is understood that the sale the land fell through due to concerns over run-off water associated
with this process and the impacts the could have with contaminants in the land. Feedback on the site from
prospective buyers, has cited accessibility issues in relation to the motorway network and contamination as
the key barriers to sale.
As such, we do not consider retaining the site for ongoing employment use will help the Council in terms of
meeting the City’s economic development needs, the site is more likely to remain vacant and not contribute
to delivering sustainable development.
Page 4
Justified
Paragraph 182 of the NPPF states that, ‘the plan should be the most appropriate strategy, when considered
against the reasonable alternatives, based on proportionate evidence’.
With reference to Leeds’ Site Allocations Plan Sustainability Appraisal Publication Draft (September 2015),
this site is considered only for employment purposes which it is argued is predicated on the fact that the site
has historically been used for such purposes. The Sustainability Appraisal clearly states within its
assessments, that the site is derelict and unsightly and does not offer the opportunity to increase social
inclusion and community cohesion. It does not appear that the site has been assessed for residential use,
The Council have therefore failed to consider all reasonable alternatives for the site, despite the historic
nature of its vacancy and market evidence of it being surplus to demand .
In addition, with reference to the Council’s Site Allocations Plan and Aire Valley Leeds Area Action Plan
Employment Background Paper (September 2015), it is clearly stated within Appendix 1 that the site has
been allocated for employment due to historic consents on the land and the existing UDP allocations, thus
indicating that no alternative options for this site have been considered.
Finally, the eastern most edge of allocation EG1-61 (Brownfield land) falls within the designated Green Belt
land in part and as such paragraph 80 of the NPPF id directly relevant. This states one of the purposes of
the Green Belt as being assisting in urban regeneration, by encouraging the recycling of derelict and other
urban land. It is therefore asserted that Council have failed in their duty to justify that this can only be
achieved for the purposes of employment development.
Effective
Paragraph 182 of the NPPF states that, ‘the plan should be deliverable over its period and based on
effective joint working on cross-boundary strategic priorities’.
As referred to above, the site has been vacant since 2002 and marketed for sale or lease. Our market
testing and local knowledge indicates that the site is very unlikely to be attractive to the market and be
delivered for the proposed use.
Consistent with National Policy
Paragraph 182 of the NPPF states that, ‘the plan should enable the delivery of sustainable development in
accordance with the policies in the Framework.
This site is considered to be a sustainable location, in line with NPPF Paragraph 85 which advises that ‘when
defining boundaries, local planning authorities should ensure consistency with the Local Plan strategy for
meeting identified requirements for sustainable development’.
With reference to paragraph 22 of the NPPF, ‘Planning policies should avoid the long term protection of sites
allocated for employment use where there is no reasonable prospect of a site being used for that purpose.
Land allocations should be regularly reviewed. Where there is no reasonable prospect of a site being used
for the allocated employment use, applications for alternative uses of land or buildings should be treated on
their merits having regard to market signals and the relative need for different land uses to support
sustainable local communities.
Considering that there is a wealth of evidence to demonstrate that there is no recent market interest in this
site for employment purposes, inclusion of the site as an allocation for such proposes is considered to be
wholly inconsistent with national policy as set out within the NPPF (2012), in this regard. We are not aware
of any evidence that the proposed allocation is likely to be delivered and indeed the Sustainability Appraisal
appears to confirm the allocation is based on historic use only.
Page 5
Conclusion
Our client is actively promoting the site’s allocation for residential use, contrary to the recommendations of
the Leeds Site Allocations Publication Draft document.
With regard to the contents of the emerging Development Plan Document (DPD) and the site’s and policies
contained within, the document is considered to be unsound as it is not positively prepared, in line with up to
date marketing information, which indicates that the site is surplus to demand for employment purposes
within this locality.
The allocations contained within this site are also considered to be inadequately justified as the site has not
been considered for any other purposes other than employment, by virtue of the legacy of its historic land
use. The site’s sustainable location, by virtue of its excellent transportation links and accessibility to local
services has been overlooked and the Plan is therefore inconsistent with national planning policy.
We would welcome the opportunity to discuss this site further with the Council and to be involved in later
stages of the consultation/Examination process in due course. Please do not hesitate to contact me directly
with any questions or queries you may have in relation to this representation, or any other matter. We wish to
be kept informed of the Site Allocations document’s progress.
