North Littlehampton West Sussex
SUMMARY Summary An opportunity to create a new community in West Sussex on the northern outskirts of Littlehampton with outstanding views across open countryside towards Arundel and the South Downs. Comprehensive redevelopment of the site to comprise new residential accommodation of up to 1260 units incorporating retail, commercial space, community hall, a youth facility, primary school, a hotel and care home. The formation of a new road to the A259 comprising the southern section of the proposed Lyminster Bypass and the new Fitzalan link into the town giving easy access to the A27.
LOCATION LOCATION (which extends north up to the Blackditch water course) consists of approximately 85 hectares (210 acres) of land, largely covered with glass houses, warehouses and is located on the northern edge of the coastal town of Littlehampton in West Sussex. The South Coast mainline railway forms the southern boundary of the site. Toddington Lane crosses north over the railway, and serves a mixed use area located centrally on the site before turning west to connect, via Mill Lane, to the Lyminster Road. The residential area of Toddington is located south of the railway and the separate village of Lyminster lies to the north. The A284, which is the main road serving Littlehampton south from the A27 (trunk road) passes to the west of the site through Lyminster and then south to Littlehampton town centre. The Black Ditch water course follows the northern site boundary. Low lying land within the site south of the Black Ditch comprises grazing marshes of bio diversity value. Land to the north of the Black Ditch is intensively cultivated arable land with large scale fields and a few defining hedgerows and attractive long distance countryside views to the North West, North And North East including Arundel Castle / Cathedral. A public footpath from Poling connects the eastern part of the site between the glass houses, before joining Toddington Lane near the railway line.
