Available for redevelopment following clearance of the site, the land offers a good opportunity to provide new housing on a brownfield site in a rural location. A scheme for development of 8 homes on the vacant land was permitted in 2016 (15/01516/FUL). The scheme will provide homes for affordable rent. Works commenced in 2016. Development of 8 dwellings completed in 2017/18.

What is Brownfield Land?

Brownfield land is previously developed land that may be available for redevelopment. The government prioritises brownfield development over greenfield sites to protect countryside and make efficient use of existing infrastructure. Local authorities maintain Brownfield Land Registers to identify suitable sites for housing.
