The property is a 0.2 hectare irregularly shaped plot located on Lower Luton Road in Harpenden, adjacent to Batford Mill and directly opposite residential properties and a recently constructed school. The site is suitable for business use and would provide a logical extension of the existing employment designation. The proposal seeks to remove the site from the Green Belt and allocate it for employment, which would provide an opportunity for development and create significant planning gains, including much-needed employment generating floor space. The site has the potential to be developed into five small or one large commercial unit, making it an attractive option for businesses looking to expand or relocate.
