E2 - PINEWOOD STUDIOS

The Pinewood Studios site as identified on the proposals map is allocated for film studio use. Extensions, new buildings and conversions within the site will be permitted provided that:

  • the proposals are for uses directly connected with film production or associated industries; and
  • the proposals would be in accordance with all the other policies in the plan. Particular attention is drawn to policies EP3 (Use, Design and Layout of Development)

Proposals for redevelopment or re-use of the studios will only be permitted where:

  • it is demonstrated that the site is no longer required for studio use; and
  • the proposal would be for an employment generating use; and
  • the proposals would not result in a significantly higher level of employment than currently exists at the site; and
  • the proposal would result in a reduction in the overall footprint of buildings on the site and incorporate substantial landscaping; and
  • the proposal would be in accordance with all the other policies in this plan. Particular attention is drawn to policies EP3 (Use, Design and Layout of Development)

In the event of any redevelopment the Council will prepare a development brief for the site.
