07.10.15 LAND AT PRESTON FIELDS, FAVERSHAM
Reasons not pursuedAlternatives
Whilst this could potentially provide up to 290 dwellings thatwould reduce the need to release greenfield land outside the
3. Provide for housing on thewhole site
confines of towns and villages, it would secure no employmentprovision which would fail to achieve employment on a suitablesite (as confirmed by the Employment Land Review). It wouldalso not potentially help meet the employment needs of theadjacent deprived neighbourhood.
Table 6.2.4 Alternatives considered on land at the Western Link Faversham
Meeting future employment needs at Faversham
6.2.50 At Faversham, whilst some new employment land has been provided in recent years,some sites identified by the Swale Borough Local Plan have not come forward. Whilst the Council’sEmployment Land Review (2010) found that the majority of these sites continue to be suitable foremployment purposes, it recommended that a new, relatively small scale industrial site(s), beidentified to provide for some 20,000m2 (5ha) of business, industry, warehousing and officefloorspace (‘B’ class uses). Identification of such a site(s) would allow the release of poorer quality,older estates and upgrade the quality of the overall supply at the town.
6.2.51 Even at this scale, there are, at present, insufficient available and suitable sites withinthe urban area to provide the quality of site needed in a location with good access to the maintransport network. This means that a decision needs to be taken to release land on the edge ofthe town. An actual extension of the town’s well-defined urban edges has not been undertakenfor a generation and requires a challenging decision to be made as to a location which has theleast harm to the character and setting of the town and the landscape around it.
6.2.52 The Council’s Urban Extension Landscape Capacity Study (2010) examined the characterof land around the town and its ability to accommodate change. In broad terms, the study foundthat the town’s northern and western edges had a low capacity to be developed. Additionally, theCouncil notes that these areas are subject to tidal flooding and important wildlife designations.Between the Faversham-Ramsgate railway line, to the east of the town, and Ospringe village tothe south, the landscape is described by the study as having moderate capacity for change.
6.2.53 The Core Strategy Key Diagram and Policy ST 2 identifies an area of search for a suitablesite to meet the town’s future employment needs based on the conclusions of the above evidence.It comprises land running clockwise from the Faversham-Ramsgate railway to Brogdale Roadsouth of the town. The area of search is slightly smaller than the area indicated by the LandscapeStudy as two further factors need to be taken into account. The first is that for any employmentsite to be attractive, it must have good access to the strategic road access. The smaller searcharea represents the greatest potential for near immediate access to the M2 Motorway, A2 andA229 Thanet Way. The second factor is the constraint to development represented by Ospringeand its conservation area. Development in the south-western and western parts of the town couldbe both harmful to its character and setting and further threaten the quality of environment inOspringe Street which is already subject to an Air Quality Management Plan.
123Swale Borough Draft Core Strategy: Bearing Fruits (March 2012)
6Allocations and areas of change
6.2.54 The Council has sought submissions from landowners within the area of search as partof the preparation of its Employment Land Review (2010) and Swale Strategic Housing LandAvailability Assessment (2010/11). The Council’s assessment of the submitted sites has led tothree ‘short listed’ locations where the Council wishes to make further assessment and canvassviews from interested parties. The sites are:
Option A: Land at Perry Court Farm, Brogdale Road.Option B: Land between Ashford Road and Salters Lane.Option C: Land at Lady Dane Farm, Love Lane.
Map 6.2.5 Faversham employment site options
6.2.55 The Council wishes to choose one of these options as its preferred location. The sitewill then be identified as one of the Core Strategy's Strategic Allocations and included within thesubmission version of the document. The chosen site would be the subject of a policy and adevelopment brief would be required which would need to be approved by the Council.
6.2.56 In addition to employment provision, all three promoters of the option sites have advocatedsome additional housing to support the delivery of the employment proposed. Consultants for theCouncil have undertaken high-level viability assessments in respect of one of the sites (in orderthat its findings can be used as a guide for all three). This has concluded that some enablingdevelopment would be needed for a range up to 170 units depending upon the state of the housingmarket. The Council has accepted this advice, and made the assumption that approximately 150dwellings (5ha) would also be required for each site. This means that for each site, approximately
Swale Borough Draft Core Strategy: Bearing Fruits (March 2012)124
Allocations and areas of change6
10ha have been assumed for both housing and employment development. To treat each siteequally, it is assumed that the remainder of the site areas submitted would be identified as openspace/landscaping.
6.2.57 Each site was assessed by the Council’s Employment Land Review (2010 ) for itsattractiveness for employment development. Site A scored 19 and is described as ‘average’. SiteB scored 17 and is described as ‘average’. Site C scored 20 and is described as ‘good’.
6.2.58 A description of each site, the issues it faces and a site plan is included below.
Option A: Land at Perry Court Farm, Brogdale Road
Map 6.2.6 Faversham Employment Site Option A - land at Perry Court, Brogdale Road
This 33 ha site is framed by the Abbey School, Ashford Road, Brogdale Road and the M2.The site is farmed and open in character, although it is reasonably well screened on the outerboundaries. Site levels gradually fall from the M2 northwards to the school. Immediatelysouth of the school are historic listed buildings.
It is assumed that access to the employment area would be from the Ashford Road (this beingthe closest to Junction 6 of the M2). Whilst this access could also serve the housing, it isassumed that an access would be required from Brogdale Road.
The Council’s Landscape Capacity Study indicated that some development could beaccommodated on land immediately to the south of the Abbey School. The Council considersthat the setting and character of the listed buildings would need to be respected as well as
125Swale Borough Draft Core Strategy: Bearing Fruits (March 2012)
6Allocations and areas of change
the visual/landscape impacts that would need to be assessed and addressed. These arelikely to be at their greatest the further south built development extends toward the M2, butcould perhaps be reduced if substantial open space/landscaping were focused in the southernpart of the site and development located to the north. For this site some 23 ha would remainundeveloped. However, it should be noted that the site promoter is of the view that the largerarea of land should be allocated for development.
It is assumed that some transport improvements would be required. These would mostly beat the A2 junctions with Brogdale and Ashford Roads. An improvement in the pedestrian linksacross the A2 from the school would also need to be addressed.
Option B: Land between Ashford Road and Salters Lane
Map 6.2.7 Faversham Employment Site Option B - land between Ashford Road and Salters Lane
This 14 ha site is framed by the A2, Ashford Road, Salters Lane and the M2 Motorway. Thesite is farmed and forms a shallow valley running northward from the M2 to the A2 where thereis a gap in development that allows for open rural views back up the valley. The site is screenedin views from the Ashford Road, but there are more exposed and prominent views of the sitefrom the A2, M2 and Salters Lane.
It is assumed that access to the development would be from the A2 as only an emergencyaccess appears available from an existing gap in development on the Ashford Road.
Swale Borough Draft Core Strategy: Bearing Fruits (March 2012)126
Allocations and areas of change6
The Council’s Landscape Capacity Study indicated that there was high visibility across thesite, although less so on the valley side west of Salters Lane. It indicated that small scaledevelopment could be accommodated on this valley side. If the whole of the site were to bedeveloped then much greater visual impacts would need to be addressed. Land for openspace (4ha) could be used to contribute to this.
It is assumed that some transport improvements would be required. These would most likelybe at the A2 junction with the Ashford Road and The Mall. As this junction would form theprincipal link to the site from the M2, such improvements may be extensive and would, in turn,need to be assessed for their visual impact.
Other issues affecting the site are the potential impacts on any new residents from the existingHighways Depot on the A2 and the Household Waste Recycling Centre.
Option C: Land at Lady Dane Farm, Love Lane
Map 6.2.8 Faversham Employment Site Option C - land at Lady Dane Farm, Love Lane
This 26.5 ha site comprises land east of Love Lane and south of Graveney Road, whilst itssouthern border comprises the Faversham-Canterbury railway. Its eastern boundary is theedge of an open north-south running ridge which then falls away to the east. Adjacent to thesite is the former Nova industrial area, the Cemetery, the Love Lane housing estate, a farmcomplex and centre for adults with learning disabilities. Views of the site are restricted from
127Swale Borough Draft Core Strategy: Bearing Fruits (March 2012)
6Allocations and areas of change
the A2, but are more extensive in other locations. The existing urban edge of Faversham isvery well contained and defined here. There are long distant views of the site from the eastthat include views of St. Mary’s Church spire in the centre of the town.
It is assumed that several accesses to the site would be needed, both in Graveney Road andLove Lane. An access to the A2 could be achieved with a loop road from the south east cornerof the site, although this would potentially increase development pressures on other land inthe longer term. Access to the Motorway could be achieved at Brenley Corner via the A2 andto the Thanet Way at its Duke of Kent junction via the Graveney Road.
The Council’s Landscape Capacity Study indicates that a minor expansion of developmentcould potentially be accommodated east of Love Lane where the land is visually containedby the ridge referred to above. Extensive development extending beyond, or visible from,land east of this ridge is considered by the study to be inappropriate. It indicates that the ruralapproach to Faversham and the compact nature of it should be conserved and the wider ruralsetting of St. Mary’s Church respected. Other mitigation measures such as the provision ofsome 16 ha of open land could have achieved this. It should though be noted that the sitepromoter considers that some 9 ha of this could be available for future phases of development.
The Council’s initial assessment of the options
6.2.59 In respect of Site B (Ashford Road/Salters Lane), the Council considers the site to bethe least preferred option. It is disadvantaged from an employment point of view by its primaryaccess from the A2 which as well as not being direct from the motorway, could lead to trafficdifficulties at the junction with the A251 and The Mall which may require a major re-design toresolve within the conservation area. A primary access from the A251 close to the M2 would seemmore desirable, but does not seem achievable at this stage. Developments of large parts of thesite would be on visually prominent land, potentially detrimental to the setting of the town andlandscape.
6.2.60 In respect of Site A (Perry Court Farm), the site would be attractive to potentialemployment uses; it being close to the M2. Whilst the site is well contained visually, additionaldevelopment would have adverse impacts which would need to be considered.
6.2.61 In the case of both sites A and B, development would be located between the A2 andM2. Development of either of these sites could give rise to additional pressure over time to developother land in this locality which would ‘fill’ and expand the town up to the M2. Not only would thischange the character and setting of the town which has development entirely north of the A2 (incontrast to most A2 towns and villages), it would, over time, place an additional undesirable burdenon the A2 between Love Lane in the east and the Western Link in the west as it became a morecentral road used by traffic north and south of it. It could eventually lead to transport conditionssimilar to other places where the A2 has become embedded within the urban area. Althoughbetter than site C, pedestrian routes would require safe crossing of the A2.
6.2.62 In the case ofSite C (Lady Dane Farm), whilst the site has some adverse visual landscapeimpacts, it is likely to be the most attractive to employment users; it having good access to thestrategic road network. For access to the town centre, it is acknowledged that the site is probablythe furthest of the three and there could be localised transport issues on routes into the town centre
Swale Borough Draft Core Strategy: Bearing Fruits (March 2012)128
Allocations and areas of change6
(although there is an off road route, this would not be attractive after dark and because of a largenumber of steps). Unlike other sites, this option could provide for development needs over thelonger term.
6.2.63 Taking into account the above, and subject to further views as part of this consultation,Site C (Lady Dane Farm) is, on balance, the Council’s preferred approach.
Other matters affecting all site options
6.2.64 The Council has agreed with the Highways Agency that the levels of developmentproposed at Faversham should not affect the operation of junctions 6 and 7 of the M2 at the AshfordRoad and Brenley Corner. However, in the longer term, the Council is concerned to ensure thattheir operation is not critically impaired by development proposals either within the Borough or inother Council areas. In the meantime, the chosen site option would need to prepare a transportassessment that should examine the implications for these junctions.
6.2.65 The Council’s priority remains the development of its existing identified employmentsupply at Faversham in preference to the development of greenfield land (unless its loss has beenaccepted and demonstrated by evidence). In addition, land at the former Nova site on GraveneyRoad is also potentially available and suitable for employment uses. In drafting the final policy forits chosen site, the Council will consider whether its release should be based on an up to dateassessment of progress on delivery of other employment sites at Faversham and that if such siteshave come forward, that the need for and timing of the release of the chosen option site shouldbe reviewed.
Alternatives considered - meeting future employment needs at Faversham
Reasons not pursuedAlternatives
The draft Core Strategy presents three sites to meet aEmployment Land Review recommendation of 20,000m2 (5ha)of new employment land to improve choice and quality of stock,and the Council has assumed an element of housing to provideenabling development and improved choice.
Select an alternative locationat Faversham
Landscape evidence shows the town to have low capacity forgrowth to the north and west. The northern area is additionallyat risk from flooding and is designated SSSI/SPA. It borders thetown's conservation area and there is a strong setting to the townat this point. To the south and east, there is some (moderate)capacity, although the Council considers that the south west ofthe town should be excluded because of potential impacts onair quality on the A2 in nearby Ospringe. There is also a needfor employment sites to have strong access to the motorwaynetwork, which would be less possible from sites in the southwest of the town. This leaves two potential sites to the southand one to the east of the town. All breach the towns well definedand long held boundaries. All are likely to involve best and mostversatile agricultural land, but the protection of this could bejudged as overridden by employment and sustainability benefits.

A larger site to the east of Love Lane, Faversham was not'short-listed' because the scale of development was in excessof the need and its landscape/visual impacts upon the townjudged to be significant.
Whilst this would remove the need to release greenfield land, itwould mean that employment provision would rely on long

standing sites which have not come forward. This risks notproviding for employment needs in the town contrary to the CoreStrategies employment led approach.
Table 6.2.5 Alternatives considered - meeting future employment needs at Faversham
Sittingbourne Northern Relief Road - Bapchild Section
6.2.66 The development strategy focuses new development at the main urban area ofSittingbourne, with strategic allocations at north west and north east Sittingbourne and majorregeneration development already committed in the town centre. This will maximise use of sparecapacity on the A249 and the completed sections of the Sittingbourne Northern Relief Road(SNRR). The opening in November 2011 of the Milton Creek bridge section of the road has alreadyprovided a direct link between the business area to the north and east of the town with the A249.The benefits of the road will be best realised with the completion of the route from the EurolinkIndustrial Estate to the A2 in the Bapchild area. The northern bypass around the town will thenbe complete, further relieving the town centre of traffic, opening up development opportunities andsupporting Core Strategy and other allocations. Strategic transport modelling carried out by theBorough Council in partnership with Kent County Council has demonstrated its value in reducingcongestion in the town centre and supporting new development.
6.2.67 Commitment to finalising the route of the final section of the road is also important toensure its continued inclusion in appropriate transport programmes and funding bids and will alsoallow it to attract developer funding. Commitment to and progress on completing the SNRR isalso an important step in re-balancing the highway network to relieve pressure at M2/Junction 5,which will be complemented in the longer term by the Sittingbourne Southern Relief Road (SSRR)between the A2 and M2 east of Sittingbourne.
6.2.68 The Swale Borough Local Plan (2008) included a policy (Policy T8) which safeguardedland to provide an indicative route corridor running north of the railway and meeting the A2 atBapchild Cricket Ground. Subsequent research by the Kent Highway Authority revealed that thisroute would be difficult to achieve due to ground conditions and configuration of a railway crossingand be prohibitively expensive. Local public consultation was carried out by Kent Highways in2010 on alternative routes crossing the railway to the north west of Bapchild with alternative routesaccessing the A2 either to the east or west of the village. The outcome of this consultation wasinconclusive in terms of route preference and the issue was suspended pending consideration ofa SSRR and the scope for linking the two. The SSRR is not likely to be deliverable within theplan period and it will be for a Core Strategy Review to pursue this further.
6.2.69 The SNRR however, is likely to be deliverable within the plan period and is also alreadyidentified in Kent County Council's transport delivery programme. Although a preferred route hasnot yet been agreed, this Core Strategy seeks to deal with this by allocating an area of search
Swale Borough Draft Core Strategy: Bearing Fruits (March 2012)130
Allocations and areas of change6
within which the route of the road will be sought and allocated. This policy will be supported byearly preparation of a development plan document to determine the detail of the route and appraisaland mitigation of impacts, including the area impacted by the chosen route itself and any potentialfor impacts on traffic flows and living environments on the A2 corridor east of Sittingbourne. Thelatter may require traffic management solutions in the settlements most affected. The evidencebase for the DPD will include and review the design and consultation work carried out by KentHighways in 2010 and work on this is expected to proceed in collaboration with the highwayauthority.
6.2.70 The area of search incorporates land which is allocated for mixed use under the strategicallocation for north east Sittingbourne. However, the area affected is anticipated to be for residentialuse and is phased post 2021 so should not be unduly constrained by deliberations on the roadroute. Access to the more northern part of the allocation for employment use is already in placefrom the roundabout at the southern most end of the built part of Swale Way. South of the railway,the Local Plan (2008) allocation and supporting SPD at Stones Farm for residential and openspace has been retained. The area of search for the SNRR route encompasses the area of publicopen space (east of the Stones Farm residential allocation) to allow for the widest considerationpossible of route options and to ensure that a full complement of public open space and adequateseparation of the settlements of Sittingbourne and Bapchild can be retained. Implementation ofthe allocations north and south of the railway must nevertheless have regard to the need to providefor the road corridor. Development which would be likely to preclude achievement of the roadbetween the current end of Swale Way and the A2 will not be permitted in advance of preparationof the DPD and allocation of a precise route. Funding towards provision for the road will be soughtboth from any suitable sources of public finding and from developer funding.
