Opportunity On behalf of our Landowner clients, Hawksmoor are instructed to seek a Promotion Partner to promote this strategic residential development opportunity, lying to the western edge of Hilton, South Derbyshire. The Land identified on the plan forms part of a wider landholding that extends to approximately 115 acres. The Land subject to the Promotion extends to 81.6 acres. The northern boundary of the site abuts the A50, the western boundary adjoins Hoon Lane. The southern boundary abuts Derby Road with the eastern boundary adjoining further land outside of the ownership and the access road to the farmhouse and buildings.
Location Plan
Location Hilton is a village that sits within the District of South Derbyshire, towards the South West extent of the County of Derbyshire. Derby City Centre is approximately 9 miles to the East of Hilton via the A516. Burton upon Trent is 7 miles to the South and Stoke on Trent 32 miles to the West. Junction 24 of the M1 is approximately 15 miles to the East via the A50. Hilton village has a population in excess of 8,000 people. It acts as a key service village within South Derbyshire, which falls below Swadlincote and the urban areas adjoining Derby and Burton upon Trent within the settlement hierarchy. The village has seen a significant influx of development over the last 25 years.
The village is served by two primary schools being the Hilton Primary School and the Mease Academy.
Notable employers in the village include Don Amott Leisure Kingdom, Hilton Garage, Alpha Construction, Talbot Turf, two public houses and shops that include Aldi and a small Tesco.
There are two small industrial estates, where the businesses serve Hilton and the wider hinterland.
Trent Barton operates bus services through Hilton every half an hour in each direction on routes to both Derby and Burton upon Trent.
There are two main line railway stations in close proximity – Tutbury to the West (2 miles) and Willington to the East (4 miles). The main line from Derby to Stoke on Trent and Crewe runs south of the village.
Technical
The majority of the land falls within Flood Zone 1, with land to the South and East falling in Flood Zone 3, in accordance with the latest Environment Agency flood risk map.
Site Plan
At the time of writing, no further intrusive ground investigation works have been undertaken.
Planning The land is located within the administrative district of South Derbyshire. The adopted planning framework is made up of two documents. These are the Local Plan Part 1 (adopted in 2016) and the Local Plan Part 2 (adopted in 2017). Part 1 addresses more strategic issues for the district and sets the amount of housing and employment development required. Part 2 outlines non-strategic housing allocations and detailed development management policies. South Derbyshire began reviewing its current Local Plans via a ‘Issues and Options’ consultation in October 2022. The purpose of updating the Local Plans is to ensure that the Emerging Local Plan covers all the right issues including housing, jobs, infrastructure, health, climate change and the environment. It is now anticipated that either a refreshed ‘Issues and options’ Local Plan or a Draft Local Plan will be consulted on in the first half of 2024. The land is a natural fit for taking on the growth of Hilton in future years and as a potential site allocation via the Emerging Local Plan. The lack of a land promotion history, in our view, provides a very good opportunity to create a robust vision and planning strategy for the land and to highlight the strong sustainability credentials of both the settlement and the land. Whilst the land does not directly abut the urban edge of Hilton, given that the Flood Zone 3 areas that exist to the West and South of Hilton, it is considered that the land North of Derby Road is the first parcel of land West of Hilton that would be suitable for development that falls outside of Flood Zones 2 and 3.
