Sandleford Park Supplementary Planning Document (SPD)

Sandleford Park has been allocated as a strategic site for housing and associated development through the Core Strategy.

Core Strategy policy CS3 [181KB]  sets out the main principles for development on the site.  These principles include affordable housing, infrastructure and the creation of country parkland and other open space.

A SPD for the Sandleford Park site was adopted in September 2013. The SPD supports the Core Strategy policy, setting out more detail to guide future development and investment. It provides a framework for future planning applications at the site, and local people and stakeholders have been asked for their opinions through public consultation. More information regarding the consultations can be found within the consultation statements at the bottom of this page.

The SPD has now been amended to reflect the need for a single planning application for the site. This will ensure that the site is comprehensively delivered, with timely and well planned provision of infrastructure.

The  amended SPD [7MB] was adopted by Council on Tuesday 3 March 2015.

A  Statement of Consultation [351KB] and an  Adoption Statement [16KB] have also been prepared for the amended SPD.
