.
Viewing: During day light hours in possession of these particulars
Property ref: BC/413
SITUATION:
The site is to the east of the prosperous market town of Wetherby which is particularly well served with supermarkets, shops, community facilities schools nearby and ready access to the motorway network with Junction 46 within 1 ½ miles. The A58 provides ready access to Leeds City Centre. This is a very busy rural town with the extremely active 40 acre (and 150 acres consented) Industrial Estate to the north of the township along with Thorp Arch Trading Estate to the southeast. York Road provides ready access to the A1(M) the town with all its attractions and locally Wetherby Racecourse on the door step while in the other direction the City of York is within ready reach.
ACCESS:
The property has approval for the presently unmade access to Turnpike Lane. There is provision for a secondary access off York Road and potentially Tom Cat Lane within the village.
DESCRIPTION:
This is a green field site considered as a whole, is generally pretty level, contained by the dyke to the north, York Road to the south and property boundaries to other aspects. Significant protected trees extend along the western boundary and are found within the site. Phase 1 has been implemented.
SERVICES:
Mains water, gas and electricity are available locally. A services 'search plan' is available but service connections will be required to be provided. Foul water is proposed as gravity discharging locally to the system close to the existing manhole near to the terminus of Tom Cat Lane to the north west corner (see drainage strategy plan). Attenuated surface water drainage is to be provided on site with the balancing storage facilities as indicated on the layout plan and outlet to the adjoining dyke.
CIL:
A Community Infrastructure Levy assessment will be due to be paid by the developer as Zone 1 currently assessed at £50/m² based on 2020 rate for residential accommodation.
SECTION 106:
A Section 106 legal Agreement has been completed by the parties, dated 20th May 2025. A copy is available to interested parties.
The agreement provides for:
* Affordables viz: 2 x 1 bed semi bungalows; 1 x 3 bed detached and 2 x 2 bed semi-detached sale units.
* Contribution to Village Hall: £32,381.28 (before occupation of 7 dwellings)
* Contribution to Open Space: £19,750.66 (before occupation of 6 dwellings)
* NYC Monitoring Fee: £735.00.
RIGHTS & RESERVATIONS:
The site has significant tree cover on the western boundary and there is protection provided to individual components under 18/00084/TPORDR and the oak at the site entrance 14/00020/TPORDR. The property will be sold with a covenant that will preclude access being taken westwards through the property.
Currently, a foul sewer crosses the site and serves two other properties on York Road. The sewer will require diversion and the subject properties reconnecting as provided in the 'strategy'.
A low voltage NPG line on poles crosses the site and an undergrounding diversion will likely be required.
