Planning Strategy advice in support of land owner’s Estate and Disposal Strategy. Outline planning permission secured for residential redevelopment of the site.

Project Details


St Clement’s was a substantial Hospital complex comprising a former mental health asylum set within established parkland grounds. As part of a multi million modernisation programme for improved patient services a new low secure unit was provided leaving the majority of the site surplus to NHS requirements.

An outline planning application was submitted for the conversion of the C19th hospital buildings and site redevelopment for 227 dwellings and community facilities. Planning approval was granted in July 2015 and the scheme has now been fully constructed.
