History of the Site
The site measures approximately 15 acres (6.06 hectares) in total and comprises two pieces of land. The proposed access is located on vacant land between 265 and 267 Hillbury Road with the majority of the development to be built on land formerly known as Shelton Sports Club (currently accessed off Shelton Close) which has always been privately owned with no access to the public. This land has been vacant for over a decade and has been a constant target for vandalism and arson.
