Spring Lane, Lambley, Nottinghamshire

The site is situated on the northern edge of Gedling, approximately 1km south-west of Lambley and 6.15km north-east of Nottingham centre. Occupying a corner position at the junction of Spring Lane and Lambley Lane, the property benefits from direct gated access off Lambley Lane and good connectivity to the surrounding road network.

Gedling Country Park is situated immediately to the south-west, providing adjacent open space and established recreational amenity. The surrounding area is predominantly residential in nature, with planning permission having recently been granted for the development of five new-build dwellings to the north of the site (under application reference 2022/0173).

The site comprises level grassland extending to the north-east corner of Gedling Country Park. The site is clearly defined by established hedgerows and timber fencing, with a wooded belt along the south-west boundary. It benefits from prominent frontage to Spring Lane and Lambley Lane and is suitable for agricultural uses or redevelopment, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.

The site is abutted by 153 Spring Lane to the northern boundary, with the Land Registry Titles separated by way of wooden fencing. An electricity substation is also positioned on the eastern boundary, subject to an existing lease dated 12th February 2001 with Powergen Energy PLC (superseded by E.ON UK PLC) who is understood to be holding over. A copy of the lease and lease plan are included within the Data Room.

The Gedling Borough Council Local Plan allocates the site as Safeguarded Land (Protected), under Policy LPD16. Safeguarded land is defined in the NPPF as land between built-up areas and Green Belt that is protected from development in the short to medium term to meet development needs beyond the plan period (in this case, beyond 2028). Interested parties are recommended to make their own enquiries with the LPA.
