A rare, implemented development site in the North Shropshire village of Moreton Say with planning consent for 16 dwellings (including two affordable homes). The scheme benefits from outline approvals (2015), reserved matters (2016) and variations approved in 2024; CIL and affordable housing contributions to Shropshire Council have been paid and pre‑commencement conditions discharged. Works were started in 2018, demonstrating the consent has been implemented.
The whole parcel extends to about 1.80 acres (0.73 ha) with an approved built coverage of approximately 19,438 sq ft. The western parcel (c.1.15 acres) includes a number of farm buildings and an adjoining silage pit/slurry store that the purchaser will be licensed to remove and reinstate as agricultural land. The eastern parcel is c.0.65 acres. The site sits in a quiet hamlet setting with fast broadband, very low crime levels and straightforward road links: Market Drayton c.3 miles, Whitchurch c.8 miles, M6 J15 c.17 miles.
This is a practical opportunity for a housebuilder or experienced developer: implemented consent reduces delivery risk and recent 2024 variations simplify access and layout. Material points to note are the rural, remoter location (local services concentrated in nearby Market Drayton), an area classification showing local deprivation, and an unknown tenure; purchasers should rely on their own due diligence. All measurements and details should be independently verified before contractual commitment.
