We have not made any enquiries with Forest of Dean District Council with regards to the current planning consent, however, we have assumed that the property has planning for Class E, B2 and B8 use under the Town & Country Planning (Use Classes) Order 1987 (Amended 2020).
Planning permission was obtained for the following:
P0073/17/FU
Erection of four self-contained flats and associated works. Demolition of shop, dairy and outbuilding.

However, this consent has now expired.
We are of the opinion the site will be suitable for residential redevelopment by demolition of the existing workshops.

Flood Risk
Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
