Town-centre plot with strong transport links and Local Plan mixed‑use allocation.
6.32 acres (2.56 ha) centrally located next to Piece Hall and Halifax Minster
A substantial 6.32-acre freehold development site in central Halifax, immediately adjacent to Piece Hall and Halifax Minster. The site is allocated for mixed-use development in Calderdale’s Local Plan (Policy SD6, L1170) with employment (E(g)(iii)) and residential (C3) uses considered appropriate, and ancillary community or retail uses acceptable.
The plot benefits from excellent public transport links — Halifax rail and bus stations are within a five-minute walk with direct services to Leeds, Manchester and London — and planned highway improvements nearby that will change road layouts and acquire parts of the site. The land is broadly flat with a rise to the east and Hebble Brook running partly through the site in culvert and open channel, creating constraints and design considerations.
Prospective buyers should note this is a former gasworks site with redacted environmental reports, non-negotiable environmental provisions and easements affecting the title. The sale is conditional/ unconditional by offer; detailed title, surveys and a development brief are available in the data room for serious enquiries. Viewings are controlled and require full PPE.
This opportunity suits developers, investors or an owner-occupier capable of managing remediation, ecological and infrastructure requirements. The site offers scale and town-centre positioning but also carries material planning, environmental and access obligations that will affect timing and cost.
