    Site reference: HL111
    Site name: Gambier House, 111 West Hill Road and West House, 115 West Hill Road

    Focus Area/Strategic Policy: Focus Area 4: West Marina and West St Leonards

    Use: Residential

    Indicative capacity (net residential dwellings/floorspace): 20

    Site specific development considerations based on draft Local Plan policies:

    Development on this site should:

    • Provide 25% affordable housing in line with policy SP2
    • A vacant building credit will be applied to this site subject to criteria being met (see: National Planning Practice Guidance on vacant building credits)
    • Retain and restore Gambier House and West House buildings together with infill development, or demonstrate how demolition provides a better design response
    • Consider proposals that include removal of unsympathetic or out of keeping additions to the buildings in order to  better reveal the original design as this will be supported
    • Ensure the existing access point is utilised
    • Not include development beyond the southernmost point of the existing buildings as it will not be permitted
    • Provide public open space to the south of the site
    • Avoid or mitigate against adverse impacts on the adjacent Caves Road Cliffs Local Wildlife Site
    • Sustain and enhance the setting of the Grosvenor Gardens Conservation Area
    • Provide innovative solutions for any necessary on-site parking that do not dominate the site
    • Have discharge rates agreed with the Pevensey & Cuckmere Water Level Management Board (PCWLMB) prior to granting of permission. This site also has a high groundwater table and drainage design should be informed by onsite monitoring
