RAILWAY STATION The railway station and its surrounding land offers a significant regeneration opportunity to improve the arrival experience into the city. Potential exists to utilise and modernise under used buildings and redevelop and intensify other areas to deliver a high quality gateway to the city. The station is at the northern end of Armada Way, the city’s public realm centrepiece boulevard extending to the Hoe and waterfront. Significant opportunity exists to improve connectivity between the station and Armada Way and improve the site’s prominence. The benefits are two-fold through providing a visual presence from the city centre to the station and as a direct link to the waterfront upon arrival into Plymouth. Plymouth is the busiest station in Heart of the South West Local Enterprise Partnership’s area. The station has seen passenger footfall grow by 4 per cent per annum since 2004 and now stands at 2.5 million per annum with an expected further growth in passenger footfall of 4 per cent per annum over the next 10 years, in response to key drivers including planned rail service improvements and population growth in the city. This equates to an additional 1 million passenger movements per annum within the next 10 years. The number of passenger movements is forecast to double over the next 25 years. As a regional hub, the station is an important gateway for visitors to the whole region.

SUTTON ROAD WEST The site occupies an attractive and prominent water front location on Sutton Harbour’s east quayside, close to the city centre, public transport and amenities. The quayside forms part of the Sutton Harbour Heritage Trail – the publicly accessible waterfront walkway looping around the quayside. Exeter Street, the major strategic transport route to the city centre from the east, forms the site’s northern boundary. Major residential and office mixed-use development has already taken place on the site’s formerly derelict industrial waterfront. There are recent planning applications for parts of the site for mixed-use/residential development, however, significant potential for redevelopment is still achievable.

Opportunities and aspirations • Residential potential for 194 units • Residential led mixed use development with potential to include offices, hotel, leisure and small scale retail uses • Active ground floor frontages to enliven all public streets and spaces • High quality public realm including new quayside public open space • Size: 0.9 ha (2.22 acres)

The site provides an important opportunity to make better use of the whole area, such that it contributes to Sutton Harbour as a sustainable community and a high quality waterfront destination. Introducing a more diverse mix of uses will help create a more vibrant, safe and welcoming area with a sensitive balance of day, evening and weekend activity.

SUTTON HARBOUR FISH QUAY Plymouth is a nationally significant fishing port, providing the largest 2015 tonnage of fish handling in England and hosting a major fish market. Sutton Harbour’s fishing fleet is a fundamental part of its economy and character and therefore should be protected and improved. There is significant scope to improve the site, including its Lockyer’s Quay frontage, to create a positive first impression for people approaching the site and the National Marine Aquarium (NMA) from the east. Future proposals should seek to optimise the Fish Quay’s public fish-retail, education and tourism potential in a way that draws from best practice in similar successful facilities in other cities, whilst ensuring the operation of the fish quay is not compromised.

Opportunities and aspirations • Enhancement of existing fish quay operations • Opportunities for complementary small-scale retail, education and leisure related uses • Optimising the unique waterfront setting • High quality public realm and building design • Size: 1.13 ha (2.79 acres)

STONEHOUSE BARRACKS The MoD intends to sell the historic Stonehouse Barracks complex as part of its review of the defence estate. The site, which has been occupied by the Royal Marines since 1760, is one of three purpose built barracks for the Marines in the UK, the others being at Chatham and Portsmouth. The site contains important groups of Grade II and Grade II* historic buildings as well as a scheduled monument. Stonehouse Barracks is a site and location of exceptional quality and opportunity. Its re-use will need to reflect its substantial heritage value, and a masterplan led approach to redevelopment will be required. The extensive site regeneration should be a high quality, sensitive mixed use area which provides quality residential units, sports, cultural and commercial opportunities, and also achieving strategic connections from the Millbay waterfront, South West Coast Path and the National Cycle Network.

Opportunities and aspirations • Heritage-led regeneration, including the provision of a new hotel and associated visitor facilities and marine/natural environment-related research and development • Potential for renovation of the scheduled ancient monuments and listed buildings for new uses • Unique waterfront setting • Size: 2.79 ha (6.89 acres)

DRAKE’S ISLAND Drake’s Island is located in Plymouth Sound, about 600 metres south of the Hoe. Formerly known as St Nicholas Island, its strategic position led to it being fortified from at least the 16th century. The history and prominence of the island mean that it is strongly linked to the image of Plymouth. The island regeneration provides a unique opportunity for hotel led development providing sensitive re-use and which safeguards and enhance its historic and natural environment features. A large proportion of the island, including the casemated gun battery at the west of the island, is a scheduled monument. The group of four principal buildings at the north-west end of the island are Grade II listed. These comprise the 18th and 19th century former Barracks, Ablution Blocks, Commanding Officer’s House and Guardhouse. The range of remains and fortifications, and the prominent location of Drake’s Island, make it a heritage site of the greatest importance. Drake’s Island also has significant wildlife interest and is located within the Plymouth Sound and Estuaries European Marine Site. It will be critical that any development demonstrates that it will not have an adverse impact on these protected qualities.

DERRIFORD & NORTHERN CORRIDOR Site reference: PLY38

DERRIFORD COMMERCIAL CENTRE Derriford has a significant role to play in creating a new heart for the north of the city. A new commercial and district centre are at the centre of proposals. A range of uses will be supported including residential, main town centre uses (as part of a district centre) and employment generating uses. The introduction of other uses within and immediately around the mixed use commercial centre to generate high levels of activity (including offices and higher density residential uses as part of a wider mix of housing types) will be important to support the district centre and enable it to serve as a true focus for the north, providing more than shopping facilities.

Opportunities and aspirations • Mixed use development comprising new commercial floorspace in the form of retail, medical/health related uses, B1 offices and workshops, leisure and community uses, education, multi storey car park, and residential • Residential potential for 664 units, including extra care and student accommodation • Potential for 34,000 sq m offices • Supermarket provision as part of district centre • Scope for bespoke business park development • Pedestrian and cycle route to Derriford hospital, new public transport connections • Size: 18.7 ha (46.21 acres)

A strategic masterplan has been prepared to assist with bringing forward proposals to ensure that the overall vision for the area can be realised. It is expected that whilst the precise developments to come forward will be substantially market-driven, it is anticipated that each part of the area will have different characters, so, when taken as a whole, they provide a comprehensive focus and range of complementary uses in the north of the city. Planning permission has already been granted for a new international headquarters for The Range and a flagship store of 80,000 sq ft.
