Canterburys, Darby Green Road, Blackwater, Camberley, GU17 0DT

Description
A freehold cleared site approximately 0.39 acres (0.16 ha) within Hart District Council. Prior to the current owner's acquisition, the site was occupied by a public house. In 2015, planning consent (ref: 15/01563/FUL) was granted for its demolition and the erection of a new detached two-storey veterinary building of 745 sq m (8,020 sq. ft) with 16 car parking spaces. This consent was implemented through the demolition of the public house, ensuring the planning permission remains extant.

Following the 2020 Use Class Order, veterinary use now falls within class E, which also includes medical and health services. The site therefore has potential for alternative uses such as medical, health hub, educational, professional, and business uses (STP), as well as residential development (STP).

Location
The site occupies a prominent position on the north side of Darby Green Road, near Camberley, Surrey (GU17 ODT), in an established residential area with good amenities.
It benefits from excellent transport links: the B3272 (Reading Road) provides direct access to the M4 (Junction 4) and nearby connectivity to the M4. Sandhurst and Blackwater rail stations are within approximately 1.5 miles, offering services to Reading, Guildford and London. The site is also on a local bus route connecting nearby residential and commercial areas.
The site lies within the Darby Green Yateley Conservation Area and is outside the Thames Basin Health's SPA 400m buffer zone.

Planning History
The site is within Hart District Council. Prior to the current owner's acquisition, it was occupied by a public house. In August 2015 planning consent (ref: 15/01563/FUL) was granted for the demolition of the public house and the erection of a two-storey veterinary building, with cycle / bin stores, 16 parking spaces and landscaping. The approved building design was over two storeys of 745 sq m (8,020 sq ft), and a building footprint circa 30m x 17m. All associated technical reports, including highways, flood risk, ecology, landscaping etc are available on the Hart District council planning portal.

A subsequent planning application was submitted in 2023 for the erection of 7 three bedroom dwellings and access to the public highway. This application was withdrawn in 2023.
