Illogan is a pleasant village located just 2 miles from the main A30 and only 1½ miles from the coast . The village offers a range of day-to-day shopping facilities, including a chemist and two doctors' surgeries. There is also a good primary school, park, two churches and a pub. Local attractions include Tehidy Golf Course & Country Park (set within the former Basset Estate) less than ¾ mile away, Portreath beach and the North Cliffs are only 1½ miles along the road.

The Cathedral City of Truro is 12 miles away which has fantastic shopping facilities, a theatre, Royal Cornwall Hospital, very good private schools, etc. The regional airport at Newquay is 25 miles away.

SITE LOCATION
The site is located on the edge of Illogan at the point where the A30 divides the predominantly rural parish from the urban areas of Camborne, Pool, and Redruth where there is a full range of town centre amenities available including the mainline train station. The area surrounding the site is historically known for tin and copper mining, and the settlement is now agricultural and residential.

DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL FOR PRE APPLICATION ADVICE
A high-quality scheme providing 48 x 2, 3, and 4-
bedroom dwellings offering 28 affordable homes
for rent and shared ownership, to be delivered in
partnership with a Registered Provider and cross subsidised by the sale of 20 open market homes.

LOCAL PLAN
The development proposals in this assessment have been considered against the Cornwall Local
Plan which was formally adopted on 22 November 2016, providing the planning policy framework for Cornwall for the period to 2030.
Policy 9 – Affordable Housing-led schemes
The site represents an Exceptions proposal, whose primary purpose is to provide affordable housing to meet local needs. The policy starting point is to achieve 100% affordable housing but, subject to economic viability, Policy 9 acknowledges support for the inclusion of up to 50% market housing where it is essential for the successful delivery of the affordable homes. The assessment considers the outcome at 100% and concludes that 42% open market housing is necessary to cross-subsidise delivery.

COMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE LEVY [CIL]
The Cornwall Community Infrastructure Levy Charging Schedule came into effect on 1 January 2019. Redruth is within value zone 5, although CIL is not charged on an affordable housing-led Rural Exception Site approved under Local Plan Policy 9, including any market housing necessary to achieve cross subsidy for delivering the affordable element.
