In order to develop the site for housing, the former landoll will be subject to remedial earthworks to protect Bewbush Brook, which runs through the site, improve the ground stability and create a landform suitable for housing development. Small quantities of wood and organic matter will be removed as part of the remedial earthworks and gas protection measures will be incorporated within the foundations of the buildings on parts of the site in order to take away sources of ground gas and stabilise formerly marshy ground.

to ensure the SuDS provide a positive contribution • to the local biodiversity and general amenity, the attenuation features will be of varied scale, form and character:

Phase 1 Design Vision
The sustainability strategy is being developed to incorporate a broad range of measures including the following principles:
Targeting exemplary energy ef ciency levels and carbon reduction • beyond the existing Building Regulations for the development as a whole;
Planning in the ability to utilise solar energy; •
Planning in the ability to incorporate a district heating network; •
The rst phase will look to achieve Code for Sustainable Homes level 3 • for the market dwellings and 4 for the affordable dwellings;
Homes designed to use 33% less water than the national average and • 16% less than the new Building Regulations;
Ergonomically designed recycling facilities in the home; •
Movement corridors designed with priority for pedestrian, cycle, and • public transport modes in mind.
