Introduction
The whole site forms part of North Lincolnshire Council’s new emerging plan 'H1 - Proposed Housing Allocations' - Site ref: H1P-13 and extends to approximately 14.85 acres (6.01hectares). It currently compromises open farm land at the edge of the settlement of Barton-upon-Humber.

Location
The market town of Barton-upon-Humber is situated on the south bank of the River Humber. The town has a selection of shops, primary and secondary schooling and sports facilities. The A15 is located on the western edge of the development providing access to the north via the Humber Bridge to East Yorkshire and the City of Hull and to the south via the A18/M180 to Grimsby, Scunthorpe and the national motorway network. Humberside airport is approximately eleven miles to the south and Barnetby Rail Station is approximately seven and a half miles away, from which an intercity train service is available via Doncaster.

Current Planning Status
The land falls within the North Lincolnshire Council boundary and is therefore subject to planning guidance and policy set out within the existing North Lincolnshire Local Plan (adopted May 2003) and the North Lincolnshire Core Strategy (adopted June 2011). These documents are currently in the process of being replaced by the new emerging Local Plan, which is at Stage 4: Publication Draft (Regulation 19) and awaiting adoption.

Significant weight is given to the emerging Local Plan, pre adoption, with the subject property forming part of the housing allocation within the town of Barton-upon-Humber – Site ref: H1P-13.

The allocation sets out that the surrounding residential uses and close proximity to the district centre of Barton upon Humber and local services makes this a suitable site for residential development that could accommodate approximately 225 dwellings. Affordable housing provision will be expected on site.
