The site is located approximately 1 mile to the south west of the village of Whalley, approximately 5 miles from the town of Clitheroe, approximately 6.9 miles from Blackburn and approximately 13 miles from Preston.

DESCRIPTION
The development site is a relatively level and broadly rectangular piece of land which measures approximately 45m x 90m and has an area of approximately 0.57acres (0.23Ha) or thereabouts.

The site was recently used as a compound to facilitate the development of Calder Grange and it looks onto a balancing pond which provides part of the surface water attenuation from the completed Redrow site.

The entire site lies in Flood Zone 1 which has the lowest risk of flooding and the EA flood map indicates that there is no risk of surface water flooding.
