Strategic Land Availability Assessment (SLAA)

East Herts District Council has been assessing the suitability of sites suggested by developers. The SLAA takes into consideration factors such as access, industrial contamination and flood risk, but inclusion of a site within the SLAA does not mean that EHC is recommending development, only that they believe development there is possible. 
 
The chief sites (with maximum numbers in brackets) are:  
 
National Grid Site/Norbury Woodyard, Mead Lane (300)
 Dicker Mill (50)
Land west of Marshgate Drive (182)
Land south of Mead Lane (100)
Former Police Station, Ware Road (126)
Caxton Hill industrial estate (256)
Hertford Fire Station & HQ (40)
Bentley House, Pegs Lane (24)
Royal Mail Delivery Office, Greencoats (18)
Braziers Field (18)
Former Dolphin car park, Mill Road (14)
Chambers Street (18)
Waters Garage, North Road (14)
Bluecoats Avenue (12)
Elburt Wurlings, Pegs Lane (10)
West Street allotments (10)
 
These, along with some other smaller sites, have all been previously developed, with the exception of Braziers Field and West Street allotments.
