2 Location The site is located in Adel, an attractive residential suburb in north west Leeds. Adel has a strong housing market linked to its good schools and other local amenities. It has a semi-rural setting with surrounding open countryside and woodland, but is also close to the A6120 Outer Ring Road and A660. These roads provide good links to Leeds city centre, as well as other surrounding commercial centres and the M1, A1(M) and M62 motorways. Leeds railway station is located within the city centre circa 4 miles to the south, with Leeds Bradford Airport also located within close proximity, circa 5 miles to the north west. The site lies to the south of Dunstarn Lane, off Long Causeway. Location Plan of the Site (see red dot - for identification purposes only)

3 Description The site is on the south east edge of Adel in a tranquil setting with Green Belt land to the south and east and the New Rover Cricket Ground to the south west. Adel and Scotland Woods are further east. The remainder of the surrounding area to the north and west is predominantly residential either large detached dwellings or newer apartment buildings. The site was originally a building plot for a substantial Victorian residence the mirror image of the adjacent property called The Heath. The site extends to circa 4.03 acres (1.64 hectares) in area, with two elements: The Paddock circa 3.29 acres This includes gardens previously used by The Heath, an open area of rough grazing (now vacant) with mature trees along the boundaries. There is potential to create a new vehicular access from Dunstarn Lane, or to utilise the existing access via 8 Dunstarn Lane. The Bungalow (No. 8 Dunstarn Lane) circa 0.74 acres A single storey 3 bedroom property built in1989 with double garage and private garden.

4 Town Planning The site forms part of a wider allocation for housing development (Ref H3-1A.8) in the Leeds Unitary Development Plan (UDP ) which also includes The Heath to the west, and the indicative capacity is stated to be 28 new dwellings for the whole site. In the September 2015 Publication Draft of the new Site Allocations Plan the wider site is confirmed as an identified housing site for 28 dwellings (Ref. HG1-74 / 687). It is also identified as a potential access to facilitate the proposed housing allocation of the Green Belt land to the east (ref. HG2-38 / 1178A) which has an indicative capacity of 68 dwellings. Based on discussions with Leeds Council (Andrew Thickett, Principal Highways Officer) and initial advice from WSP (Robert Roger, Principal Engineer), the off-site junction improvements referred to in the UDP allocation text are now considered unlikely to be required. The site is not in a Conservation Area. There is a Tree Preservation Order relating to certain trees along the boundaries of the site. A tree survey and ecological survey have been carried out and are available. The site is located within Zone 1 on Map 12 of the Leeds Core Strategy (2014) and the Residential Charging Zones Map of the Leeds Community Infrastructure Levy (2015). Accordingly, Policy H5 of the Core Strategy sets out that on site affordable housing will normally be expected at a target of 35% for 10 or more dwellings. Furthermore, a Community Infrastructure Levy of 90 per square metre will be charged by the Council, based on the net additional floor area (gross internal area) of the proposed development. Interested parties should make their own enquiries of Leeds City Council the area officer is Mathias Franklin: or Mathias.Franklin@leeds.gov.uk.
