New Dartford crematorium proposed in Darenth and extension of Traveller site in Southfleet
Plans for a new crematorium are among the latest planning applications submitted to Dartford council.
A request has been submitted for an environmental impact assessment screening opinion for the facility plus burial grounds and associated infrastructure at the former Mabledon Hospital site in Green Street Green Road, Darenth.
The council is being asked to determine whether the scale of the development would require a full environmental assessment before any formal application is made.
Plans have also been submitted to extend an existing Gypsy and Traveller site at 48 Brakefield Road in Southfleet.
The proposal seeks permission for the stationing of one additional mobile home on the land, alongside the erection of an extra dayroom building to support the site’s use.
The application includes a change of use of the land in order to formally extend the boundaries of the existing Gypsy and Traveller site.
In Greenhithe, a change of use application has been submitted to turn a home at 1 The Orchard in Mounts Road into a HMO for up to 10 people.
