Revised plans have been submitted for the development of 9 ‘high-quality, purpose-built family homes’ on disused land in Brading.
Cordage 11 Ltd has submitted revised plans to County Hall to construct 1x 2-bedroom house, 5x 3-bedroom houses and 3x 4-bedroom houses at a site behind the Bugle Inn, off the High Street.
The developer’s proposal also comprises parking spaces, cycle and bin storage and landscaping.
Plans for 8 homes were first submitted in June last year, as previously reported by Island Echo.
A Planning Statement prepared by CPC Planning Consultants Ltd on behalf of Cordage says:
“The Isle of Wight Council seeks to deliver a minimum of 8,320 net dwellings on the Island by 2027, in which 980 of the new housing will be sought to accommodate in the Rural Service Centres and the wider rural area through small-scale development.
“The proposed development will therefore not only contribute to meeting the council’s housing target, but also make a positive contribution towards the future viability of the settlement.
“The proposed development will also respect and conserve the character of the rural area by following the existing development pattern within the settlement, where the immediate area comprises mainly two-storey residential properties.

“Both soft and hard landscaping and further biodiversity enhancement measures are incorporated, to enhance biodiversity and achieve biodiversity net gain.”
The council public consultation on application 24/00560/FUL finishes on 18th July and a decision is due on 6th August.
8,320 by 2027 that’s 4,160 a year
(Personally I can’t see it happening)
