Tiverton Road, Cullompton
  Aerial Image  
  Proposed Location  
The proposed development site is situated adjacent to Tiverton Road approximately 700m to the east of Cullompton town centre. Goblin Lane runs directly to the north of the site and provides a direct off road pedestrian link to the town centre.

The site is bounded to the north and east by farmland, whereas existing residential development is present on the opposite side of Tiverton Road to the south and also beyond the place of worship directly to the west.

The site itself is 1.18 hectares in size and is currently used for equestrian grazing. Numerous mature specimen trees form the boundary to the site.

The land opposite has recently obtained consent for residential development.

  Highway Context  
• Provides part of the western development access route
• Provides footpath along existing Tiverton Road
• Narrows Tiverton Road to reduce traffic speed and create a street which is more pedestrian friendly
• Parking provided to follow the ethos of the Knowle Lane scheme
• Footpaths provide permeability through the development and link to Goblin Lane to the north
• Cycle parking is provided to cater for at least one person per bedspace

 

  Constraints  
A tree survey has been undertaken which identifies areas of no build to ensure that the retained trees are protected throughout the development and into the future. Underground power cables are located in the north west of the site servicing the adjacent sub station.
  Scheme  
The scheme provides up to 49, 2, 3 and 4 bedroom houses each with their own car and cycle parking spaces.

The scheme has been designed to incorporate part of the proposed future western development access route. As the actual route beyond the site boundaries is unknown, the design allows for linkages to future development to the north and east as they are bought forward.

The scheme is designed to create linkages to the existing footpath network. Although views into the site are limited at present the frontage and street scenes will form an important part of the development.

  Artist Impression  
The proposed development will reflect elements of design seen around Cullompton and it’s massing.

The landscape scheme will improve the visual relationship between the sites and the public realm using good quality hard landscaping, trees, shrubs and planting sourced from local stock where possible.

 

  Proposed site section  
Cullompton is defined with a mix of 2 & 3 storey buildings, the majority of the development will be 2 storey with changes in levels to help break the ridge lines and respect the natural contours of the site with a few 2 1/2 storey buildings to create presence at the square.

 

  Materials  
The materials and detailing will be chosen to tie in with similar building fabrics seen throughout the town, typical materials to be used are shown above. The final scheme shall provide a high quality development that will use architectural features found throughout Cullompton.
  What next  

A planning application has been submitted and is with Mid Devon District Council. Your comments and views from this exhibition will be collated and submitted to the local planning authority. They will be considered as part of the ongoing discussions with the local planning authority.
