The Site
The site offers approximately 12 acres: 7.9 acres Commercial Land
4 acres Aricultural Land & Roads
The Industrial Estate is situated approximately 2 miles from Standlake, an Oxfordshire village in which a number of small to medium size businesses are located.
Standlake is surrounded by and well connected to a plethora of sizeable towns including Witney, approximately 5 miles to the north, and Abingdon which is about 10 miles to the south east. The city of Oxford is circa 10 miles to the east.
Standlake Industrial Estate is located off the A415 with direct links to the A40 and A420 and is approximately 25 miles from junction 8 of the M40. The estate is surrounded by a range of industrial occupiers and backs onto agricultural land.
Pre App 1
Town and Country Planning Act 1990 APPLICATION: 21/01951/PREAPP PROPOSAL:
To construct a small industrial site with units
AT: Land West Of Cotswold Dene Standlake
Policies: OS1NEW Presumption in favour of sustainable development
I write in regard to your enquiry received by the Council on the 28.05.2021 seeking the pre-application views of the Local Planning Authority. The relevant information is set out below. Please be aware of the disclaimer at the end of this letter. If you have any questions relating to the advice given, please contact the Case Officer.
Site Characteristics and Constraints:
The site adjoins the Standlake Industrial Estate within the open countryside accessed off the A415. The Industrial Estate lies to the North of the settlement of Standlake. The site has a history of contamination and drainage problems. The historic maps also indicate an area of archaeological importance in the area. A bridleway 360/8/10 runs to the south of the site.
Planning Assessment:
It is unclear whether the site forms part of the Standlake Industrial Estate but nevertheless appears to relate well to the existing employment buildings and defined southern boundary. Policy E1 of the adopted Local Plan supports the expansion of existing employment uses and as such, the principle of this development may be acceptable subject to compliance with other local plan policies.
Given its open countryside location, one of the main considerations will be the visual impact of the new industrial units which would be viewed from nearby roads and bridleway to the south. The submitted details indicate units with a ridge height of 7.2m which would be appear to be in-keeping with other buildings within the estate. Appropriate landscaping would help to soften and mitigate the impact of the development and would have ecological/biodiversity benefits. Any planting should be native and whilst it is recognised that there is some evergreen planting along the southern boundary, this should be re-inforced and replaced where necessary with appropriate woodland planting. The southern boundary is now quite exposed in places and in views from the south new industrial buildings are quite prominent. The mix of units is welcomed and the Council’s Business Development Manager agrees that there is a healthy appetite for such units.
The views of the County Council (OCC) have not been sought as part of this pre application response as they operate their own pre-application advice service and would comment on matters such as transport, drainage and archaeology. Their comments would be valuable in this respect as I understand that there is a routing agreement for HGV’s from the industrial estate and there have been drainage issues on the site. The historic maps also indicate an area on archaeological interest.
Please note that all applications should demonstrate a net gain in biodiversity where possible
