Planning:
In the current Chorley Local Plan and is situated in an area of open countryside.
The new Local Plan, Central Lancashire Local Plan, is at an advanced stage of preparation and is expected to be adopted late in 2026.
As part of the preparation process, the land was considered as a preferred option site for 53 houses although it did not progress to be allocated.

Erection of Stables or Agricultural/Amenity Buildings will not trigger the covenant.
