LOCATION
Located in Mid Sussex, Haywards Heath is an affluent town 15 miles north of Brighton and 14 miles to the south east of Crawley and Gatwick Airport. Central London is approximately 40 miles to the north and the A23 is within 5 miles to the west accessed via the A272. Haywards Heath mainline railway station offers frequent direct rail services to London terminals and south coast towns. Harlands Primary School is located less than half a mile to the north, and the site borders the main Haywards Heath College campus, part of the Chichester College Group. Local shops are a short walk away, including Sainsbury’s and Waitrose, and the main retail thoroughfare is approximately half a mile to the west.
The site comprises a vacant brownfield site which forms part of the Haywards Heath College campus and lies to the north of the college buildings. It gently rises from the east where an access driveway leads to the site from Turners Mill Road. It is in an established housing area and is a short walk from central Haywards Heath, the Station, bus stops and various leisure and shopping facilities with several schools close by.
