Reuse of existing sites links Bath flats, Chipping Sodbury lorry base and North Somerset barn plans

Planning coverage and council lists point to a common pattern of new uses being proposed for land and buildings that already have a previous life.

Bath Echo reported that plans have been submitted for a block of flats on a sloping, overgrown brownfield site at the rear of Thornbank Place in Oldfield Park [1]. Gazette Series reported that a company is applying for a goods vehicle operator’s licence to use a site on Wickwar Road in Chipping Sodbury [2]. North Somerset Council’s planning weekly list included an application to decide whether converting an agricultural barn south of Clevedon Road, Weston-in-Gordano, into a dwelling is likely to have a significant effect on a European site [3]. Weston Mercury reported that design plans for 142 homes at Haywood Village, part of the former Weston Airfield redevelopment, were approved [4]. Involving proposed housing, a goods-vehicle licence and a barn conversion, the set of planning items spans Bath, Chipping Sodbury and North Somerset.
