Additional Notes
Site within the village, currently part occupied Rickerby's, a long established agricultural vehicle business. There are a range of buildings in situ along with associated hardstanding. Relocation of the business to new premises would be required to enable redevelopment, as would subsequent demolition of the existing buildings. A scheme to this effect has been proposed in the past. Application for clearance and development of 40 homes was permitted back in 2009 but lapsed due to non-implementation (N/07/B/0304). A subsequent application to renew this consent was submitted but later withdrawn prior to determination (11/02912/FUL). However, as there is an existing use/business in situ, and because there has been no indication in many years that there is an intention to relocated and/or redevelop the site, there is no evidence to suggest this has potential to provide new housing. No longer considered developable/developable and future housing delivery is discounted in the SHLAA.

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.
