3 TCBC - Updated Candidate Sites Register - March 2020
1 Introduction 1.1 Overview of the Candidate Sites Process - As required by the LDP Regulations,
between 6th August and 1st October 2018, the Council invited submissions from organisations, developers, landowners and the public for sites that could be included for new development, re-development or protection in the Replacement Torfaen LDP. A total of 94 ‘Candidate Sites’ were submitted which were published (for information only) in the ‘Candidates Sites Register’ published in December 2018. Two further sites were received in the intervening period between publishing the Candidate Sites Register and commencing the assessment process and they have been included within this updated Candidate Sites Register as sites CS-095 and CS-096. In addition, four sites have been put forward by Planning Officers and these have also been included within the Updated Candidate Sites Register. The sites have been considered by the Council against a ‘Three Stage Site Assessment Methodology’ for potential inclusion within the Replacement LDP. The assessment results are published in two ‘Candidate Sites Assessment’ reports, one now with the ‘Replacement Torfaen LDP: Preferred Strategy’ (March 2020) and the other with the ‘Deposit Replacement Torfaen LDP’ (October 2020); see details below.
1.2 This Updated Candidate Sites Register, has been published on the Council’s
website and made available for public inspection at the Council’s offices and libraries listed below:-
https://www.torfaen.gov.uk/en/PlanningAndDevelopment/Planningpolicy/Local-Development-Plan-Review/Replacement-Torfaen-Local-Development-Plan.aspx
Offices - Civic Centre, Pontypool and Ty Blaen Torfaen, New Inn; and
Libraries - Blaenavon, Pontypool and Cwmbran. 1.3 The Council will update this Register further to include any new sites submitted as
part of the Council’s Second Call for Candidate Sites.
IMPORTANT: Sites included in this Register are only part of the Replacement LDP information gathering process; and their inclusion should NOT be interpreted as a commitment from the Council that they are developable OR that they will be taken forward into the Replacement LDP.
1.4 Strategic / Non-Strategic Sites - The Council identifies ‘Strategic Sites’ (i.e. 100 or
more dwellings for residential sites (noting that the thresholds for all other land uses have not yet been set)) which are key to delivering the overall plan strategy contained in the Replacement LDP Preferred Strategy; with the remaining ‘Non-Strategic Sites’, which are in accordance with the plan strategy, being considered for allocation in the Deposit Replacement LDP at a later date.
1.5 This process will assist the Council / Stakeholders in understanding what land is
potentially available for inclusion in the ‘Replacement Torfaen LDP’. It also assists site promoters, in that they are not required to incur excessive costs in preparing supporting studies, etc. at the 1st Stage when they submitted their candidate site. They can wait until the ‘Further Call’ for detailed supporting candidate site information, when the ‘Initial Candidate Sites Assessment’ is published alongside the ‘Replacement Torfaen LDP: Preferred Strategy’ (March 2020); which will contain the Council’s list of unsuitable candidate sites rejected in the ‘Initial High Level
4 TCBC - Updated Candidate Sites Register - March 2020
Assessment’, the detailed assessment of ‘Strategic Sites’; and give an indication for the remaining ‘Non-Strategic Sites’ if they accord with the RLDP Strategy or not.
1.6 Finally, this Register also contains a list (with no maps) of 15+ sites which have been
submitted during the call for candidate sites, to be considered for protection in the Council’s Green Infrastructure Assessment currently being undertaken.
2. Details of the Candidate Sites Process and Anticipated Timescales
Stage 1: Call for Candidate Sites - Proposer’s Initial Assessment (8 weeks: 6th Aug - 1st Oct 2018)

5 TCBC - Updated Candidate Sites Register - March 2020
Stage 3 (LDP Strategy) TCBC Assessment of Strategic Candidate Sites (Mar/Apr 2020)
All Unsuitable (LDP Strategy) Candidate
Sites - Rejected
Stage 3 (LDP Strategy) TCBC Assessment of Non-Strategic Candidate Sites (Mar/Apr 2020)
Consultation on the ‘Deposit Replacement Torfaen LDP’ & Publication of the ‘Candidate Sites Assessment of All Candidate Sites’ (October 2020)
Stage 1: Call for Candidate Sites 2.1 Proposer’s Initial Assessment - during the ‘Call for Candidate Sites’ exercise
detailed above (August / October 2018), site proposers were requested to fill in the following details on an official ‘Candidates Sites Form’:- contact details; site details; ownership information; legal, physical, environmental, historical, bad neighbour and other constraints; how the site can connect to utility services; how vehicular access can be achieved; opportunities for walking, cycling and the use of public transport; deliverability and viability issues; development timescales; any additional information; and an OS site location and ownership plan.
2.2 Publication of ‘Candidate Sites Register’ - Following the call for sites exercise, the
Council was required to compile and publish the ‘Candidate Sites Register’ (December 2018) which is a simple record of all candidate sites submitted, and includes the following information (if known):- Candidate Site Number; Site Name / Location; Total size (ha - gross); Greenfield / Brownfield Current / Former site use(s); Proposed use(s); and Ordnance Survey (OS) based Location Plan of the site.
2.3 The Council’s Initial High Level Assessment (October 2018 – March 2020) - All
sites submitted at this 1st Stage will be subject to an ‘Initial High Level Assessment’ (i.e. initial sift) to reject any unsuitable sites which:-
are below the site size threshold;
do not reflect sustainability principles set out by the Welsh Government in national planning policy;
have fundamental constraints to development that cannot be mitigated, such as sites: in the open countryside unrelated to a ‘sustainable settlement’, or away from infrastructure, services and amenities, both existing and proposed; or within International / European / National historic and environmental designations; or residential sites in a zone C2 flood-plain;
6 TCBC - Updated Candidate Sites Register - March 2020
raise deliverability issues, or will not be brought forward during the plan period, or where it is considered, based upon appropriate evidence or the lack thereof, that the site is not financially viable.
2.4 Any sites that fail this initial assessment will not be considered any further by the Council. However, those sites that satisfy this initial assessment can be taken forward to the 2nd and 3rd Stage candidate site assessments, see details below.
Stage 2: The Council’s Detailed Candidate Sites Assessment 2.5 The Stage 2 Candidate Sites Assessments are split into four sub-stages (further
details of these assessments are published in the respective assessment documents):-
Stage 2A involves a more detailed assessment of candidate sites by internal Council officers (planning, highways, ecology, landscape, environmental health, conservation, drainage, economic development / regeneration, education, etc.) using a ‘traffic light’ coding system and with an overall conclusion on deliverability;
Stage 2B involves each candidate site being assessed against the Council’s Sustainability Appraisal (incorporating Strategic Environmental Assessment) (SA/SEA) Objectives and the Council’s draft LDP Objectives; which are developed at an early stage of the LDP preparation process. Candidate sites will be assessed against these objectives in terms of whether they will contribute positively or negatively.
Stage 2C involves the more deliverable / positive sites from Stages 2A and 2B going out to external consultation with relevant statutory agencies such as Dwr Cymru / Welsh Water, other utility companies, Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru / National Resources Wales, Cadw / Glamorgan Gwent Archaeological Trust Ltd, The Coal Authority, Welsh Government Roads, Health & Safety Executive, etc. This split approach is intended to filter out any non-deliverable or poor performing sites so that the external consultees are only commenting on sites that have a reasonable chance of being allocated in the LDP (subject to consideration against the overall Replacement LDP Strategy) and ultimately being delivered. As a result of comments received during this stage, the Stage 2A and 2B Assessments may need updating; and
Stage 2D involves a viability assessment of the more deliverable / positive sites from Stages 2A-2C. Again, as a result of the analysis at this stage, the Stage 2A and 2B Assessments may need updating.
2.6 During these Stage 2 Assessments, a site promoter may, without prejudice, be requested to submit more detailed deliverability and/or viability information in order to support their submission. If the requested information is not provided, the proposed site may not be able to proceed any further in the process; and therefore may not be considered for inclusion in the Replacement LDP.
7 TCBC - Updated Candidate Sites Register - March 2020
Stage 3: The Council’s Overall Candidate Site Assessments 2.7 This final stage brings together the results of the Stage 2 Assessments and assesses
the site in relation to the LDP Strategy. Again, ‘Strategic Sites’ have been assessed first to inform the Replacement LDP: Preferred Strategy; and then all remaining sites (and any strategic sites where new information is provided) will be (re-)assessed (March / April 2020) to inform the Deposit Replacement LDP.
2.8 Consultation on the ‘Replacement LDP Preferred Strategy’ and publication of
the ‘Initial Candidate Sites Assessment’ of All Strategic Candidate Sites (March 2020) - The ‘Replacement LDP Preferred Strategy’, whilst not a full draft of the Replacement Plan, will outline the authority’s ‘overall vision and objectives’ for the Replacement Plan, and the ‘preferred strategy’ for growth or change; which includes the identification of strategic development sites necessary for its implementation and broad locations for non-strategic development sites and criteria for their inclusion in the Deposit Replacement Plan.
2.9 Therefore, the ‘Initial Candidates Sites Assessment’ will contain a list of ‘unsuitable’ candidate sites rejected in the ‘Initial High Level Assessment’; the detailed Stage 2 and 3 Assessments of strategic sites; and give an indication for the remaining ‘Non-Strategic Sites’ if they accord with the LDP Strategy or not.
2.10 ‘Further Call’ for detailed supporting candidate site information (March / April
2020) - When the Council publishes the ‘Replacement LDP Preferred Strategy’ for public consultation, the authority will also undertake a further 8 weeks call for supporting information (deliverability & viability) for candidate sites, especially those which are compatible with the ‘Preferred Strategy’. At this stage site proposers will have more certainty to justify the expense of submitting this supporting information, especially for strategic sites.
2.11 Consultation on ‘Deposit Replacement Torfaen LDP’ and publication of the
‘Candidate Sites Assessment’ of All Candidate Sites (October 2020) - The Deposit Replacement LDP is a full draft of the Plan and will be published with the ‘Candidate Sites Assessment of All Candidate Sites’; which will take account of the supporting information submitted during the further call.
2.12 Any comments received on the Candidate Sites Assessments, during the two public
consultation stages on the Replacement LDP Preferred Strategy or Deposit Replacement LDP, will be kept on file and be considered at as part of the overall comments on these Plans at that time.
