Site

The proposed development site is a single pasture field comprising 1 hectare. The adjoining field has approval for 26 new dwellings and access. 

The site is situated to the west of the existing village of Banwell, (within the jurisdiction of North Somerset Council) immediately north of High Street and to the south of William Daw Close. 

Existing homes lie to the north and east and by the High Street to the south. The western boundary is formed by an existing poor-quality hedgerow. Access to the land is via Wil­liam Daw Close on the northern edge of the site. 

 

Access

Site access proposals see a simple priority junction proposed from the approved access road leading off from William Daw Close.

 

 

Appearance 

The 11 properties are a variety of 1, 2 and 3 bedroom bungalows and chalet bungalows. 3 (30%) of the proposed homes are allocated for affordable housing.

The site continues to maintain the same architectural language and high-quality material palette in our approved development.  

A variety of house designs, architectural detailing and building heights culminate in a common language, reflective of the semi-rural character in which the site sits within.

Materials used will be of the highest quality possible and sourced locally wherever possible.

Landscaping

The site is well contained with existing trees and hedging. Proposed planting has been designed to respond to the local area by providing a robust and interesting landscape through enhanced green buffers around the site and a substantial green buffer and woodland to the western perimeter to enhance the ecology and biodiversity of the site to support local wildlife.

The proposals will also be managed to ensure long term landscape features are delivered as part of this development.

 

 

Layout and Scale

The design solution for this site reflects the immediate surroundings and the design parameters established on the adjoining approved development, in order to provide continuity.

The development has been set back from the western edge for both ecological benefit and to reduce any potential impact to the green edge.

Proportions of buildings are traditional in form and balance a more modern approach to the fenestration, taking advantage of solar gain as well as views out of the site.

 

 

Sustainability

Homes will be constructed to the very latest construction techniques, utilising sustainably sourced materials and renewable energy technologies.

The use of solar panels combined with air source heat pumps result in our homes becoming zero carbon in terms of energy use.

Water butts positioned within private gardens will capture rainfall from roofs and enable householders to utilise this source when gardening or washing their vehicles.

A Sustainable Drainage System basin able to accommodate the capacity of the additional dwellings is incorporated in the design of the Outline approved site, providing an important role in draining surface water from the site. Not only will the basin ensure the site drains at greenfield run-off rates; it is an open feature which will include ecological rich planting and habitat for local wildlife.
