Should be added that currently there are predominantly garages and service buildings along the railway lines, north of the site. The noise conditions are key in inhabiting this area.
Also, this is the place to mention the future development of the site immediately south of Mill Road.

This declaration is ignoring the character of the specific industrial site, if not wipes it out in favour of the generic residential and commercial uses. It is understood that residential and commercial uses attract revenue, however, the industrial character, as mentioned in section 2.2.2 should be acknowledged in this paragraph, otherwise it will be lost.
As to the guidance of this document, it should recommend an interpretation of this character - both in townscape and architectural articulation (such as scale, materiality, rhythm etc)

Separate the original gatehouse from the later extension - in order to allow consideration of the extension's demolition for the purpose of improving access into site.
While the gatehouse is an original and handsome building, the gatehouse extension is a later addition which connects the Indian Community Centre. It is of a low quality, and it is suggested to mark it as a negative building.
Its removal may help to improve the entrance sequence into the site, since currently it creates a long barrier along the only access route, with little merit.
This is also the place to declare on the merit of the existing coach houses on the site as a unique feature which will make a positive contribution to the site. This will support the intention to keep these buildings, although may not appear in other appraisals.

A noise outline strategy should be given in this document, based on a desktop survey to provide the material base evidence.
Although means of noise mitigation are available, in this location, so close to the railway and road - it is the council's obligation to provide an initial working assumption for the future development (and not pass it to future developers responsibility)

Omit the word 'ambition' to form a stern obligation - 'with an overall of 40% affordable housing as a minimum target'. At the moment the sentence lends itself to be watered down in the process (as it happened before).
