Plans to develop the site of the former Killearn Hospital will now be carried out in two separate phases to hasten transformation of the long-term derelict land.
In 2020, developers Cala Homes were given planning permission to build 89 new houses at the derelict rural location, with an area of the site earmarked for development as commercial space.
Planning conditions required remediation work be carried out on the entire site before the start of construction.
