The proposals will not only regenerate the site, which has stood empty for 50 years, but it will also bring significant enhancements to the existing ecological features of the site, including Dob Sike.

The development will deliver a mix of two-, three- and four-bedroom homes all with electric car charging points and will feature green open spaces with picnic benches, a Trim Trail, a play area, footpaths, wildlife habitats, a woodland and 12.5 hectares of wildflower areas.

A historic area of high ecological value

The Dob Sike waterway is a historic area of high ecological value which is home to ancient trees, water voles and other wildlife. It will be restored and maintained by Harron and incorporated into the new development. The development will also feature an area of Birch Oak woodland that in previous plans for the site was lost.

Bringing significant enhancements to the existing ecological features of the site

“We are delighted to have submitted a planning application for this new development. We are hopeful that our plans will rejuvenate this derelict site while maintaining the rich variety of wildlife which calls this site home, and bring much needed homes to the Barnsley area,” says Tony Lee, Managing Director of Harron Homes Yorkshire.

Founded in Yorkshire in 1992

Harron Homes was founded in Yorkshire in 1992 and now, the company builds luxury homes in handpicked locations across Yorkshire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire from its two regional offices in Leeds and Barlborough.

How do SAP Calculations consider natural lighting and ventilation?

The Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) calculations are the UK government-approved method for evaluating the energy performance of residential buildings, meticulously considering natural lighting and ventilation among several key factors. By assessing the orientation and shading of a building, as well as the type and efficiency of windows, SAP accounts for solar gains that significantly influence heating requirements. Ventilation plays a crucial role, with SAP evaluating systems like mechanical and natural ventilation, air permeability, and the efficiency of heat recovery and fan systems. These elements, integrated with building fabric, heating and hot water systems, and renewable technologies, ensure a comprehensive energy performance rating independent of dwelling size, adhering to rigorous standards and regulations through approved software.
