A 1.65 Acre paddock on the outskirts of this popular village.

Although currently quite overgrown, this L-shaped paddock extends to approx. 1.65 acres and is located on the eastern edge of the small village of Little Driffield. Although outside the village's development boundary, it offers some development potential. A recent application for developing 16 affordable houses (Application Number: 22/03163/PLF) on the site was recently withdrawn, despite having support from the Director of Planning and Economic Regeneration, to Approve, subject to the completion of the Section 106 Agreement, as a Rural Exception Site. The application was for six no. Social Rented and ten no. Shared Ownership homes (10 three-bed and 6 two-bed). The application received strong objections from local residents and the Town Council, and the timescale given for completion of the section 106 agreement has now passed. Interested parties should note that the neighbouring 0.48-acre paddock, which is in separate ownership, is also offered for sale in this auction.
