The application site forms part of a wider strategic landscape buffer that has been set aside to provide separation between the housing development accessed from Cavalier View and the Predominantly Industrial Area (as identified by adopted LDF Site-Specific Allocations Policy SA3 and the Site-Specific Allocations proposals map) lying adjacent to the north/north east, a large area of which (including functional dry dock) has been used for general ship building/repairs and marine related heavy industrial activities for many years. The activities associated with the adjacent Predominantly Industrial Area are undertaken throughout the day and night and by nature they generate significant levels of noise, air borne particles, vibration and general disturbance. Given the close proximity of this development to this area the mitigation suggested as part of this development would not be sufficient to safeguard future occupiers of the development from harm caused by the activities associated with the Predominantly Industrial Area and as such the proposal would be contrary to South Tyneside Local Development Framework adopted Development Management Policies DM1(A, B) and DM2(A).
