The extensive site is currently semi rural in character and enjoys a most attractive setting from where there are panoramic views stretching across to the coast yet it is close to comprehensive amenities, access into the town centre and onto the M61 motowary intersection providing easy links for commuters and the whole of the north west region.
It has the additional appeal of extensive waterside frontage to the Leeds Liverpool Canal and is within strolling distance of Johnson Hillocks regarded as one of prettiest set of locks on the waterways.
The adjoining site of 2.6 hectares (6.5 acres) is also available.
Planning:
In Chorley Council's Local Plan (2012-2026) the site is part of a larger area allocated for a mix of employment and housing use, subject to Policies HS1.8 and EP1.
The northern portion of the allocation is currently being developed for employment/commercial use and from discussions with the Planning Officer residential development would be welcome on the remaining land.
Pre Application Advice has been received from Lancashire County Council Highways which confirms access onto Blackburn Road is permissible, subject to design. Internal service roads will be required to comply with standard gradients.
An Ecology Survey and Report has been commissioned to establish the Biodiversity Net Gain likely requirements.
Services:
All main services are available but purchasers are advised to make their own enquiries.
A foul water sewer, which is subject to an Easement runs through the site north to south.
Tenure:
The site will be sold Freehold and free from Chief Rent.
