Approximately 1/3 of the site consists of one dwelling and garden land.
The remainder is a field used for grazing.
Before 1939, the garden area had 5 properties linking Tisbury with
Tuckingmill, some remains still exist.
Site in rural settlements
Land not previously developed including Greenfield sites
Site Characteristics
The site rises from the north to the south.
The topography of the site is not considered to be a hindrance to the
successful development of the site for residential purposes
Access to the site would currently be taken through the dwelling
Tuckingstones. The landowner implied a more appropriate access
could be through Springfield Park to the south of the park, however it is
currently unknown who owns this land.
Low flood risk.
Tisbury is served by the London to Exeter Railway Line. The station is
approximately 650 metres from the site. The nearest bus stop is a
similar distance. Tisbury has a regular bus service which runs 7 days a
week, but this service is not frequent.
The site is approximately 500m from Tisbury village centre which
contains the following facilities: shops, post office, pub, library, doctors
surgery and dentist amongst others. The primary school is about 600
m away whilst the nearest recreation ground and employment is
approximately 400m.
There could be nature of interest in the hedgerows.
Due to Tisbury’s position within the AONB their maybe landscape
consideration, although the site generally sits with Tisbury’s townscape.

Before 2011 – however this would require a policy change and there is
no known developer interest.
None.

As Adjacent uses are housing and the site is quite small it would only
be suitable for housing.
The core strategy needs to determine how much housing will be
delivered in Tisbury, there is concern about the road network and
access to the site. No work has yet been undertaken on the site by the
landowner to suggest immediate delivery. The issue regarding
landownership to create an access to the site could delay delivery
timescales.
Concern over access to the site may make it not developable.

Comments:
Primary concern is over access, doesn’t appear to be too prominent within AONB. Rural area may need
lower development to be in keeping of adjacent residential dwellings. Depending on how many
dwellings are required to be delivered within the settlement strategy will influence whether this site could
come forward, or not.
