An exceptionally large, rectangular freehold development site extending to approximately 5.4 acres with direct frontage and access from Blackburn Road. The relatively flat topography and substantial site area make it suitable for large-scale commercial or industrial schemes. In 2017 outline planning consent (Ribble Valley Borough Council application 3/2017/0317) was granted for Class E, B2 and B8 uses, with an indicative capacity of about 86,055 sq ft across six blocks; that consent has now lapsed and would need reapplying or refreshing.
The site’s characteristics support strong visibility and vehicle access from Blackburn Road; broadband and mobile signal are described as fast and excellent respectively, and there is no identified flood risk. The wider area is classified as rural with white-collar workers and low crime, which may appeal to occupiers and investors seeking a rural setting with good connectivity.
Material matters: the previous outline consent has expired, and there are no confirmed utility connection details included here — prospective buyers should allow time and budget for a new planning submission, potential highways or Section 106 requirements, and any utility infrastructure works. The property lies by a small hamlet/isolated dwellings and near existing residential development, so sensitive design and neighbour consultation will be necessary for some schemes.
This site suits developers or investors targeting large employment floorspace, logistics, light industrial or mixed commercial solutions in a well-located rural setting. It offers scale and frontage that are increasingly rare on the market, but value will depend on the outcome of a fresh planning strategy and any required infrastructure investment.
