There is no recent planning history for the site, however, adjoining land to the south and west have both been recently subject to planning permissions as detailed below: Land immediately to the south: •Outline permission approved for up to 55 dwellings houses approved 1st September 2017 (ref: S/1963/15/OL); and •Reserved Matters application for 55 dwellings was submitted 28th June 2018 (ref: S/2487/18/RM). Land immediately to the west: •S/3405/17/OL: Outline planning permission granted for up to 42 dwellings on the 14th March 2018.
Greenfield Land
Erection of 120 dwellings (approx.) to include an appropriate provision of affordable housing, associated access, public open space and landscaping. 2025: Erection of approximately 108 to 132 residential dwellings.
The benefits of the proposed development are wide-ranging and will promote the social, economic and environmental objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework. The site is located in a highly sustainable location, adjacent to existing services and facilities and will seek to promote the delivery of housing and continued economic growth in the region. In particular, development of the site will: Deliver further family housing including affordable; Provide mixed house-types; Provide housing close to local employment, transport routes and planned sustainable transport corridors; and Provide potential for significant public open space.
At this initial stage we consider that the site has capacity for approximately 120 dwellings based on 30dph over 6.57ha @ 60% site coverage. The proposed density of development, 30dph, is in keeping with the surrounding character of both existing and proposed dwellings as well as with generous open space and appropriate landscaping 2025: Minimum residential units 108 - maximum residential unit 132.

Vehicular access to/from the site would be taken from Horseheath Road, via a new priority junction to the north of the site. The new access would logically be located at about a mid-point of the northern boundary on Horseheath Road. A public right of way also connects the site to Barlow Road for pedestrians to the south
There are no significant constraints at the site, which could prevent residential development being delivered.
There are no significant constraints at the site, which could prevent residential development being delivered. We have outlined other constraints which may need to be considered when developing the site. Biodiversity - The site is an arable field and in itself, does not appear to have any biodiversity value. This would be subject to an assessment as part of any planning application and any development at the site would have the potential to enhance biodiversity at and adjacent to the site. Contaminated land - The site comprises greenfield land, which is unlikely to be contaminated. Flood risk and drainage - The site is in Flood Zone 1, which is at the lowest risk of flooding (Appendix 3). As such, residential development is appropriate in this location. Any planning application would be accompanied by a Drainage Strategy which would outline how surface and foul water would be managed. Given the levels of the site it is envisaged that a surface water balancing pond may be needed in the north western corner of the site and this can form a part of a wider landscaped open space. Heritage - The site is not located adjacent to any heritage assets, including listed buildings or conservation areas, which could restrict the scope and extent of development at the site. Any development at the site may need to be accompanied by an archaeological assessment, but there is no reason to believe that this could limit or prevent development at the site.

The site is located adjacent to the existing development framework for Linton and it is considered that connections can be made to existing services – including electricity, gas, sewerage, telecommunications and water. The site is not crossed by pylons/telegraph poles and we do not believe that the site is crossed by a pipeline or similar.
The site is within the control of the promoter
Very good. Given the character and nature of the site, we do not consider that there would be any issues associated with viability or deliverability of the site.

Industrial use and agricultural land
N/A
Planning permission was granted for expansion of the existing industrial site in 2000 and this has now lapsed (Ref: s/1264/99F). That permission included extension of the existing premises and a large car park/yard, including the necessary HGV circulation space, which extended into the open agricultural land to the north of the existing buildings. The 2000 permission was renewed in 2005.
Mix of developed land and grass fields.
Industrial use of whole site: B1/B2 uses.
Local jobs, in medium tech sector, close to an expanded Cottenham given the level of future growth the village will see. In addition, some small scale employment uses are or will be displaced by residential development and these occupiers could relocate to Beach Road to retain local employment.
The undeveloped part of the site amounts to some 2.8ha. In theory this area could potentially accommodate some 12,000 sqm of further business use development assuming single storey industrial development.

There are two existing access points onto Beach Road from the land in question. If the whole site were to be developed for B uses (in addition to the existing developed area) then it is likely that a new improved access would be required. It is understood that the permission granted in the past involved such an access at the western end of the site and hence has already been endorsed (albeit in 2000, renewed in 2005 ) by the Highway Authority under Permission s/1264/99F and again under s/0694/05F.
Services available within Beach Road. The site is not affected by any key utility such a pipeline or pylons. There is a is a low level voltage electricity line crossing the site and this can easily be diverted or placed underground.
The main area of the proposed land is available now, it is relatively unconstrained and it is in single ownership. In addition, the District Council has previously granted planning permission for a new access, extension of the existing industrial buildings and a car park/yard extending into the adjacent agricultural land.
The current main occupier (Dataracks) wishes to expand on site via additional buildings and, in addition, there is ample land available to accommodate other similar uses. It is a quiet, attractive location and relatively easy to access in traffic terms. The site is easily accessible from Cottenham.
No
The past planning permissions (s/1264/99F and s/0694/05F) were not implemented due to changing economic circumstances at that time (2005) and the company focussing on its core business. Those circumstances are now different and the growth scenario is very much back on the agenda.

High tech manufacturing, Research & Development and Logistics Business Park, including enhanced motorists roadside provision.
The site provides the opportunity for a high-quality production and logistics business park of a strategic scale located at the junction of the A428/ A1198, north of the new settlement and Rural Centre of Cambourne and the A428 and to the south east of the Minor Rural Centre of Papworth Everard. The site will be well suited to meet demand for specialist B Class industrial and commercial land uses to serve the highly constrained Cambridge market. Crow Green presents an opportunity to broaden the scope of the economy in the Greater Cambridge area within the Cambridge - Milton Keynes - Oxford Arc and contribute towards ambitious targets for economic growth. Potential for 4,500 to 6.500 new FTE jobs.
305,464 sq metres of employment floorspace, including provision of roadside services. 2025 Update: Potential employment floor space between 495000 square metres and 605000 square metres.

The planned A428 Caxton Gibbet – Black Cat improvements will improve the strategic accessibility of the site, and mean that there will be appropriate access for large goods vehicles from the strategic road network such as the A1 and A14.

The site is within an area that benefits generally from key utility provision.
Existing utility infrastructure is present along the A428 and A1198 Ermine Street which border the site, and at nearby Papworth Everard.
The site is promoted by a willing landowner and is deliverable for development. However, the site will need to be allocated for development through the Greater Cambridge Local Plan process before it will be available for development.
