The impressive 2 Acre site is currently used to house our vendors 2 business interests however the large roadside plot offers an exciting opportunity to redevelop. There is increased pressure to relax the current controls for change of use on rural/commercial sites like this (LDP) and this is now evident as a nearby business operating from a commercial site has been given planning permission by the ‘Planning Committee’ to build a new residential dwelling which now sets president for the area.
